Hello all,

Brand new RX 400h owner here. Great forum - much learned already.

Question: My garage is a bit low and the liftgate hits the 'rolled back' garage door when fully extended.

I just traded a Cayenne (awful car) but it did allow me to set the max open of the liftgate.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

Thank you,

I have the same problem with about half an inch of clearance between the liftgate and the garage door. I haven't heard anything on setting the max open height... unless someone else here knows.

nah, i have a couple of scratches on my lift from the same issue. there was a thread a while back that came up empty. no door limiter that anybody found. i ended up putting foam on the some of the inside garage door hardware where the problem was. looks goofy but effective

I had this problem and I was able to increase the upward travel of the garage door. Only a few inches but it was enough. You can usually get the door trolley on the opener to get pretty close to the motor unit. There's usually a stopper and you can go all the way to the stopper. Might be worth checking. Good luck.

good idea. i did adjust the garage door opener. at least in my case it just meant it hit the door in a slightly different spot. might help in some cases tho

I don't have that problem, but I would suggest putting some carpet or, as mentioned, some foam, on the area of the garage door that gets hit. Or, of course, you could put a little rubber bumper on the spot on the car that hits it, but that is more likely to fall off.

Same here, scratches all over. Come to think of it, I've got scratches all over the car
