My C4 pic has started unlocking the tailgate when any other door is opened, when parking up the central locking will not operate until the tailgate is slammed shut, could this turn out to be a pricey repair, the car is 61 reg

Maybe the tailgate lock/hook needs adjusting. You could try closing the lock around a screwdriver and see if the same things happen. Does the dash display say the tailgate is open when it should be closed ? Other possibilities can include wiring damage between the door and body (common on some cars), a fault with the tailgate opening switch, a fault with the lock. On our previous C4 the tailgate needed a lot of effort to close it fully and often you would set off and have to stop to slam it shut again. I tried adjusting the hook but it did not help and just lived with it.
