Hi
I can open my estate rear door using the key remote, but the fob won't close the boot door. I can however open and close the door from a rocker switch located on the Drivers side door speaker. Is there a way of using the fob to close the door or is this some sort of safety feature? Thanks

Does your handbook not explain this?
 
No, I have looked right through and there is no mention of it.
 
Long press maybe?

What year is your car?

Try holding the button down on the fob
 
Sorry to hijack this but is remote close a newer thing? My e55 has remote open from the handset and drivers door switch but other than the red button on the boot lid I haven't managed to close it remotely.
 
The drivers door is a rocker switch on mine and it works both ways. I have done Long Press, Short Press, even sung an ond English folk tune whilst trying, but as yet NOWT!
 
I too have a 2012 S204 & the remote does not close the tailgate so It seems that's the way it's supposed to be.
 
Thanks for the reply
 
In reply to the hijack...On my cls55 the door rocker switch opens and closes the boot of from inside the car. The red button on the boot kid closes it or the other one closes and locks the car as well. As far as I know the fob only opens it. I expect it's the same for the estate
 
2016 E350 S212, I can open tailgate with fob or door switch but neither will close it I have to use the red button on tailgate.

my s205 with keyless...I can open and close the tailgate with the key fob..or by wiggling my foot under the bumper
 
Tailgate opens on fob, shuts when red button pressed, this is correct.

Or by using the switch on the driver's door.
