Clunk when closing doors

Post by poloag »

Hi,

When I close either door I can hear a slight clunk from the back, I narrowed it down to the rear hatch, as you can only hear it when the hatch is down, is this normal, or something loose in the hatch?

Thanks

Those are the pressure flaps, behind the rear bumper. If you remove the trim on the inside of the boot, on the side of the rear bumper, you'll see them. Two 'nostrils'.
