Hi everyone,
Our 04 TDI 90 Sport has suddenly stopped locking the driver's side door using the central locking remote or button. All other doors work fine. You can hear the door trying to lock but with a slightly weird buzzing noise. I tried locking and unlocking using the key but got into a situation where I couldn't unlock it at all.. but it eventually did so I've stopped trying that now! The car normally has the security locking set so when you drive at over 10mph it locks all the doors - except now it does this (or tries) everytime you drop below and then above this locking speed again, so it obviously knows it's not locking properly. The lights-on buzzer and courtesy light still works from the driver's door, so the microswitch must be working.
I've attached a VCDS scan log for anyone that's interested.
I know this used to be a common fault on MK4 Golf's (faulty door modules), I'm not sure if this is something similar or whether it's just something mechanical that needs freeing.
Thanks
Steve
