Anybody else ever experienced this? Doesn't happen everytime. Locks ok and opens passenger door/doors (if pressed twice...5 door)

Yours is probably set up the way mine was. 1 push only opens drivers door and 2 opens them all. This can be switched off using the vagcom. I got mine removed after getting annoyed with it.

Meant to say...thought it might've been the fob but sometimes door doesn't open even when pressing the interior button for locking/ unlocking???

You can change the lights/locks/etc settings in the MFD.

MKV GTI | Reflex Silver | 5-dr | Anthracite 17" | Manual | Highline MFD | Cruise | Revision 'D' DV | Dirty Pipes |

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

i've had this ongoing problem for ages now. VW say there is a wiring issue somewhere towards the battery/fusebox end, and they will have to trace back from the lock mechanism to find it. £80 an hour till they do.

do your wingmirror/siderepeater/LED door light still work? mine have all gone dead. no power to door except the window.
