When I press the button to open/close the boot/truck I get unfamiliar beep sounds. I can only open and close manually.

Unfortunately, we don't have a manual on this vehicle as it is not offered here in the USA, but I am thinking we have a module issue. Can you get a recording of the noise so that we can get on the same page?

Here are a couple of guides that will help with this. Basically, we need to start checking for codes as there is likely a module failure or circuit failure that is causing the body controller to beep like it is, which is indicating the failure to open the trunk.

Please let us know what codes are there and we can go from there. Thanks

Here is a short video. The sound is coming from the left. I'll need to buy one of these diagnostic devices to get the error code, so it may take a few days.

Okay. Yeah. Unfortunately, we are not going to be able to offer specifics because we don't have a manual on this vehicle but that is a beep that is telling you there is an issue most likely with the liftgate control module which would most likely be where the beeping is coming from.
