Rick288 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Just got a 2010 RX350. Does anyone know if there is a way to limit how high the rear door/hatch opens. It's just hitting my garage door? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauljcl Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Just got a 2010 RX350. Does anyone know if there is a way to limit how high the rear door/hatch opens. It's just hitting my garage door? I had the same problem with my 09RX350. I changed garage spot. Other thaqn moving, an alternative is to open the hatch door 'manually', i.e. by clicking on the back handle and restraining the speed of the 'up' movement (though it still goes as high), and putting something on the garage door (for me: beam) that protects the hatch from damage.

Rick288 Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Thanks. I had a feeling that was the situation. Sure seems like with a power door, there should be some adjustment to stop it a little lower. Oh, well. I'll just be careful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lwleedy Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I had the same problem. I went to Home Depot and bought 2 inch insulation for 3/4 inch hot water pipe. I then raised my garage door and put the insulation on the support strut that my lift gate was hitting. Lenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny The problem I had (and resolved) was that - using the power button for the door - the door would immediately come down as soon as it touched anything on the way up. So, until I changed garage spot, I used the 'manual' clicker above the license plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine hits it at the top so it doesn't trigger the automatic closing. lenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
