Good pick up. It looks like the 206 has a similar titanium black/st tropez seat to the Comfortline (albeit a different pattern). I'm not sure that's correct. The pictures still look like the old ones and the brochure is still the one from May. At least things are moving.
Here is the answer. Not much to it. Similar changes for the Arteon and Tiguan Allspace, too (the pages I was sent included them)

Took delivery of a new MY19 Passat Wagon 132TSi Comfortline with R-Line package yesterday. Does anyone know why adding the R-line package deletes the automatic opening and closing of the tailgate? I was under impression that it was only the "Easy Open function" of the automatic opening and closing tailgate that would be missing rather than no automatic opening and closing at all.
I was under the impression that the only difference was the lack of a sensor for using the foot-kick to open (due to the different bodywork). Is it more than that?
My 206 is due in a couple of weeks
Our MY18 206 wagon has the automatic opening/closing. Might be a 132tsi or MY19 thing??
Not sure if it is an MY19 thing. According to the spec sheet the 206 keeps the automatic opening (without easy open).
The 132 Comfortline without R-line package comes with automatic tailgate with easy open. However, adding the R-Line package to the 132 Comfortline results in a manual tailgate. Makes no sense to me that you pay for an optional package and then loose a useful feature!
It is like that since Passat B8 released in Australia. Too low for the sensor to sense I think. Also, the Rline package has a different rear bumper. No place to put the sensor.Quote:

Maybe try again or just give dealer a call and you will know right away.

Thanks. It is interesting that yours has an automatic tailgate. The dealer has confirmed mine does not have automatic tailgate. Looking at the spec sheet, it has a P (=part of optional package) next to the automatic opening and closing of tailgate without easy open function. Maybe this forms part of the luxury package which mine does not have but that yours does have?
Another thing I have noticed is that whilst my car has keyless comfort start, it does not have keyless entry and exit (keyless access). Again, it appears as though the Comfortline without R-Line package has keyless access, however, if R-line packages is added, then keyless access is removed! This is confirmed by looking closely at the VW pictures when you "build" the models on the VW website - on the Comfortline without R-line package the slight indentation on the driver door handle is noticeable which is the keyless access sensor. When the R-line package is added, that slight indentation on the driver's door handle disappears.
So adding the R-line package in my case, resulted in the automatic tailgate and keyless access being removed!!
I purchased mine as a Dealer demo with 2000 km on the clock. It has as well key less entry/lock and what is great it is on all four doors.
Its a bummer but you still have a great car mate.
Not sure if you have the cargo separeting net that splits cabin from boot area and hooks up in to the celling!
