Replacement of electric actuators of the tailgate in TOYOTA RAV4 IV gen. 2012-2018

Toyota RAV4 IV gen., manufactured from 2012 to 2018, is one of the omst popular SUV vehicles in the world.

Drivers appreciated the variety of engines: from the classic 2.0 Valvematic gasoline engine to the 2.0 D-CAT diesel engine to the 2.5 Hybrid, loved by many users and valued for its reliability. The car was offered in a number of equipment versions: Active, Premium, Premium Tech, Premium Executive, Selection, Prestige, Prestige Safety, 20th Anniversary.

In most of these versions, you'll already find the convenient option of an automatically opening tailgate as standard equipment. The most important part of this system is the electric actuators, responsible for the proper raising and lowering of the tailgate. If, after years of use, the trunk lid on your Toyota RAV4 malfunctions (it stutters, opens halfway, does not close), this means that the actuators originally installed by Toyota have most likely worn out. Until recently, you were forced to buy these parts from a Toyota Dealer, paying a very high price. You no longer have to overpay. DEFFNER brand actuators are designed for your car. Their installation in a professional auto repair shop should not be difficult.

DEFFNER actuators are matched to the manufacturer's requirements, they have the same type of plugs and harnesses, the length and working stroke are identical, and you will also receive a top and bottom metal actuator bracket in the set, so that you can comfortably make the change. Keep in mind that after replacing the actuators, the tailgate may need to be readjusted or cleared of errors from the diagnostic module. However, in most cases, the replacement is plug & play, meaning that the tailgate module installed in your car will detect the new actuators on its own. Also note whether you have accidentally deactivated the automatic tailgate on your RAV4 (the "PHR off" button in the central storage compartment next to the passenger seat, or - from 2015 - the option on the infortaiment display in the settings section).


Take advantage of DEFFNER's many years of experience and buy our actuators. You will enjoy the convenience of an automatic tailgate in your Toyota RAV4 for a long time to come. On top of this, you will pay several times less than at your car dealer.
