Drivers door lock rod - sticking

[Deefadog]

Any one ever had this?

I must have bent it in some way when i was fitting the new handles! it sticks sometimes and will not lock/unlock via the alarm, when i try the key i can feel resistance and then it works! it's definately the rod i think, because before i get out of the car i can just pull the pin lock toards me and it locks, everytime, but then it will not unlock unless i use the key?

So any ideas on how to fix this? i can't really see the workings inside?

I think your just gonna have to take y door card off and have a look mate. See if you can figure out whats obstructing it.

[Deefadog]

Yeah I know, i have had the door card off, but it's damn hard to see anything! anyone got a diagram?

shut up and buy some porsche ones you wuss

[Deefadog]

Any pics of the porsche ones?

I don't matter which ones i put on, they will be the delocked ones, and i will not be able to get in

My doors cards are off at the moment so if you need any pics for comparisons let me know.

[Deefadog]

Cheers, just take general pics towards the locks and the rod  that goes vertical!

I can compare then, maybe there is a clip holder or something that has fallen off

If it's bent dude you'll spend for ever trying to straighten it out get to the stealership and buy a new bit mine was an earth shattering 97p and 20p for the clip.  Any questions ask me as before I bought a new bit I was fixing mine every 3-4 days.

Cheers!

Which bits are they, what should i ask for (remember they are not too sharp down my VAG)

 I got the locking rods and clips n stuff and just redid it all U can do it but it's feckin fiddly and you cant see jack unless you take the catch off. 2 big allen bolts and the handle again lol you can almost see and get ur fingers in
