Tailgate Hinge Application and Function

This hinge is dedicated for installation in the rear body section, on the right side, of the BMW 2 F46 LCI Gran Tourer. It is responsible for stable support of the tailgate, controlling its movement during opening and closing, and maintaining its correct position relative to the body. A properly selected hinge minimizes stress on the tailgate panel, reduces the risk of sagging, and contributes to the convenience of accessing the luggage compartment.

Construction and Fit for BMW 2 F46 LCI Gran Tourer

As a part from the BMW OE category, this hinge has been designed for specific mounting points in the body and tailgate of the facelifted Gran Tourer F46 model. This means:

• maintaining the factory geometry for opening and closing the tailgate,
• appropriate placement of mounting holes,
• compatibility with original gas struts and other tailgate hardware.

Such a precise fit minimizes the need for additional modifications and facilitates installation in service or workshop conditions.

Application in Body Repairs

The rear right tailgate hinge is primarily used for:

• post-accident repairs of the rear body section,
• replacing worn or bent tailgate hinges,
• restoring correct gaps and alignment lines between the tailgate, fenders, and bumper.

A properly selected part allows for precise tailgate positioning adjustment, which is important for both aesthetics and the sealing of the luggage compartment, as well as the proper functioning of the lock and seals.

Condition and Benefits of Choosing a Used Part

The offered hinge is from the used parts segment, allowing for a cost-effective repair while maintaining the original BMW construction. In practice, this means the possibility of restoring full tailgate functionality while preserving the factory operating characteristics of the hinge mechanism. For workshops and individual users, this is a technically effective and economically justified solution.
