Golf trunk button is located on the smart key, door button, and trunk logo. Ways to open the trunk: 1. Press and hold the trunk unlock button on the smart key for 2 to 3 seconds to open the trunk; 2. Activate the trunk button inside the door, located on the driver's door or next to the storage compartment, simply flip the button upward to open the trunk; 3. Press the rear logo, just push the logo inward to open the trunk. The Golf is a compact car under the Volkswagen brand, with a body length of 4259 mm, width of 1799 mm, height of 1476 mm, and a wheelbase of 2637 mm. The car is equipped with a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine.
I've been driving a Golf for years, and this car has more than one location for the trunk button. The most convenient is the external button, usually located in the center under the rear bumper—just a slight kick with your foot can unlock it, perfect when your hands are full. There's also a trunk icon button on the key fob; press and hold it to open the trunk. Inside the car, you might find a button on the driver's side door control panel or near the dashboard. It's a good idea to check if the car is unlocked first, as the button might not respond otherwise. The Golf's design is quite user-friendly, but avoid kicking too hard to prevent damaging the sensor. Regularly checking these buttons for responsiveness can save you trouble on the road. Additionally, if a button isn't working, it might be due to low battery or dirt—a simple cleaning could fix it. Over time, these small details make daily use much more convenient.
As someone who frequently repairs cars, I must clarify the location of the Golf's trunk button. Externally, it's located under the central rear bumper—just a light touch with your hand or foot will open it. On the key fob, simply press and hold the button. Inside the car, it's usually found on the driver's door panel or the center console. However, don't forget that the key must be near the car for it to work; otherwise, it will fail. I've encountered many owners complaining about unresponsive buttons, mostly due to a dead key battery or water damage on rainy days. It's advisable to get a spare key as a backup and regularly clean the button's contact surface to prevent dust buildup. These electric buttons have a long lifespan, but occasional malfunctions can occur. A simple test is to press the button repeatedly to check for feedback. For safety, avoid accidental presses—it's best to use it in parking lots to minimize risks. In short, these small tips can make driving more reassuring.
