Opening the rear door in a tourer withou power

kaiser · 28th February 2018, 12:47

As the heading says.
I have a spare car, an estate or tourer, where the wiring is no longer complete. I can thus not power the circuit.
I want to get at the gas struts for the rear door. The door is shut.

On the sedan, there is an emergency opening of the boot possible, is a similar option available on the tourer?

If not, suggestions to get the door open, please.

thanks

fold down the rear seatbacks open via the 2 clips the compartment on the rear door below the rear window, where the warning triangle is kept and on the O /side of the compartment is a handle/tab pull to open the rear door.
