Faulty door module..

[Car nut]

If you take your car to VW to get the door module fixed you're looking at the following:

V3B4 839 015 A - £78.12  (For the rear pass side door 5dr)

Hours labour - £80!!!

Total of £158.12 + 17.5% vat = £185.79.

If they even mention a 30 minute inspection before hand, tell them to go f*ck themselves if possible

Not read the links yet, but rung VW today and was quoted these prices without VAT

£55 to check fault on computer   -refundable if they do work 
£75 Labour
£104.20 for the part

I think thats the cheapest the part can be got if itsnt let me know

Got my part from my local TPS £94.6 inc VAT

Now to get that door open

Its going to fun I'll keep you posted....

noticed something tw@tty happening with the indicators on mine today,

unlock one press = driver door unlocked
unlock two press = both doors unlocked
unlock three  "    = doors and boot unlocked 

all the above flash the indicators twice which is normal.(i think)

on locking , some times i get one flash and there all locked , sometimes i get no flash but there all locked , if it dosnt flash but they are locked does this mean the alarm isnt armed? , not too fussed realy as there locking and unlocking everytime and if you lock then unlock a couple of times you can get it to flash the once when you next lock it...

dont think ill be forking out for new door modules till they actually stop locking / unlocking though, just curious as to what single flash means?

When my rear passenger doors are opened the door open warning light comes on and stays on until it's closed. When my front passenger door is opened the door open warning light flashes on and goes out immediately. Because of this the interior light does the same. I don't think the red puddle lights work on either of the doors as I thought these were reflectors. Can anybody advise me of how to fix this fault?

Replace the door module

I just went out for another look at the red puddle lights and door open warning light. My car locked my doors open. It didn't seem to be the locks themselves but the latches for the door handles. I've finally got it closed by holding the handle open and opening the latch up with a screw driver. Could this be related to the door module?

Anyone got a how-to for this? The one linked on the vortex site appears to be down

my passenger rear has decided to keep popping up, annoying when you have anti hijack lol

Is there a fix for this or is it a replacement job? It's about the only thing I haven't attacked with my spanners yet
