Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)
You don’t really need to remove the ‘U’ shaped plastic/rubber channel to fix the leak unless you’d prefer to. If so, remember that the tailgate strut also needs to be removed at the lower end only (where it connects to the bodywork). Before doing this, ensure you support the open tailgate as explain...

Re: Rubber stops beneath deployable spoiler, part number?
Whilst I was recently in a club event I asked one of the members who has a F-Type Convertible if he could deploy the rear spoiler so I could take some pics of the rubber stops/plugs that you require and he kindly obliged. The four of them are exactly the same as you can see from the attached pics.....

Re: Rubber stops beneath deployable spoiler, part number?
I'm starting to think the two existing plugs should be in the centre holes and there are different plugs for the 'square' outer holes. Can't believe Jag would leave the square metal beneath the bezel exposed as shown in the one photo with the plug in/bezel removed. As mentioned before, in the absen...

Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)
Many thanks RPSN, so is the U shaped channel removed via just brute force? The (white) clips appear to be very firmly in place. Do they need hammering out from below? The ‘U’ shaped plastic/rubber channel can be removed by pulling it away from where it’s sealed against the side of the bodywork as I...

Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)
Glad to hear it and also that you’ve ordered a very good sealant (CT1). I’ve read your posts thoroughly which is why I’ve replied accordingly. Although you’ve thanked Mr. Gorilla, you’ve now got to remove any residue that he’s left before applying the sealant, pal. The personal uncertainty that you ...

Re: Cowl Top Panel T2R56038
If you’re going to remove the Cowl Panel I’ve attached the relevant TOPIx document. Alternatively (and also easier), if you’re going to use plastic trim restorer etc, put the wipers in the ‘Service’ position as explained here https://www.ftypeforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=7943. By doing this you can ...

Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)
I've ordered some sealant and will apply if Gorilla tape holds, and no other leak spots are found. I wouldn’t waste time using Gorilla tape on those clips etc if I were you and do a proper job using good quality sealant instead. Ensure the surfaces are clean and dry before doing so...I usually give...

Re: (Another) Leaking tailgate (sorry)
👍 Good to hear you’ve established the leak is coming from that white clip. Water can still get under the large ‘U’ shaped plastic/rubber guttering which is located below the tailgate and this is normal. I recently explained about it here https://www.ftypeforums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=80838#p80838 and...
