Just a up date. Took the panel off the tailgate to look inside. :( found a massive mess, regulator is wrecked, the back windscreen is been held in place and up with pieces of wood held in place with screws. I think it will be cheaper to look for a working tailgate on a written off car and fit that.

Yeah seen that post thanks

When its when it is open, well I guess its normal then. But really does seem very loose, as I said alot to do I think but hope I can get it fixed. I found yesterday there was no fuse for the tailgate window. After putting one in I now hear a noise when I close the tailgate.

Thanks for the idea's, I have a good few things to look at. Will let you know how I get on thanks. Can I ask, is it normal for there to be a load of play in the glass, moves like its a bout to fall out!!

I have the exact same problems, only thing working on my tailgate is the number plate lights and the third centre brake light. Only got ours a few weeks ago, sadly the person I brought it from has put a extra rubber seal on the glass because it was leaking as window never worked when she brought...

we have our first land rover freelander, its a 99 3dr diesel. On the test drive I noticed the rear window was not working, I asked the seller and was told it never worked. When the button on the centre console is pressed a buzzer sounds, also the door open warning on the driver display is on all...
