Hi Rick, I have only had a saloon version so cannot help, but you will without doubt be able to get help if you post in ther X-Typer section here https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x-type-x400-14/ There is quite a few members there that have estate versions.

There is a button on the reverse of the black plastic cover at the bottom of the wiper; just push it and it should click open.
Don't slam it afterwards!

No; once the doors are unlocked it should open.
I'm guessing that the switch is goosed or the button is stuck.
It would be worth taking off the trim panel and having a fettle around inside.

Welcome to the forums Ricksatluz,

Technical questions should be posted in the relevant Model forum - geographically relevant ones in the Region forums.

Here's the relevant section from the 2004 X-Type Owner's Handbook:
