Tailgate noises

[goddo]

2016 L494 tailgate has started making a funny noise when either opening or closing (via the switch) on the nearside and seems to be coming from the hinge area.
Sounds something like a worn gear that is not meshing properly with another.
Obviously everything is enclosed so can't spot anything at the moment.
Any ideas? Maybe heard of this before? Thanks.

Thanks for the advice.

how much did you purchae ur rangey for

Seems a strange question when you can easily search somewhere like Autotrader for specific years, models, colour etc.
Is there a particular reason why you need to know?
