Might be worth removing the gas struts, rubber stops and the tailgate seal and then with someone inside the car checking for fouling, while someone else is closing the tailgate from the outside (remember, without the struts it is very heavy). That should flag up is the tailgate is warped/twisted or there is something stopping the tailgate from sitting close to the seal flange.Membership Secretary
