Adjust the top part of the latch, pull off the plastic surround and get a 10mm socket in there

I had a tailgate rattle and fixed it with a dab of grease on the latch and the two plastic locaters on each side of the top tailgate. Has not retuned since. I never have time to go the dealer!

Make sure its not the top mount for the strut. They used to come loose rather frequently, and eventually the mounting snaps off in the bodywork. Newer vehicles should be ok though.
