How do I open the trunk of the Volkswagen Golf 6 that is stuck?
Years 2008-2012

Answer

If the trunk of the Volkswagen Golf VI remains closed and it is not possible to open it with the remote control, it is possible to open it from the inside, where - hidden in the upholstery - the manual opening mechanism exists. By ungluing the upholstery a little, you will find the manual lock that will allow you to open the tailgate.
