Tailgate opening height adjustable?
I am a little afraid that the tailgate on the wifey's ML350 might hit the top of the garage door opening if she doesn't hit the mark exactly when she pulls into the garage. Has anyone had a dealer adjust the opening height, assuming it is not a diy job? Thanks.

It is easy DIY. Just open the tailgate, and stop it where you want using the red button. Then hold that red button for 1-2 sec. That is it.
