    Very good video, everything went smoothly by following these instructions. Special thanks for mentioning the small but crucial details (like the outside handle cable alignment and supporting the window).

    One thing this also fixes is the fuel pump primes for a couple seconds when you open the driver's door. Although it seemed to have no impact on it running, it was nice to fix that. Thanks for the video! Mine had also started to not lock without using the key, it was in rough shape haha.

    Hi there - I’m reaching out to say thank-you so much for taking the time to make this very helpful video - I followed it & successfully replaced faulty door lock today & everything worked 🥳. Only error I made was completely removing window glass securing bolts rather than just loosening them till glass was removable. Had to take apart again as couldn’t get thread to connect with inner panel mounted - but sorted it out. Very great full - all the important points you made were well considered and appreciated. Cheers

    Great tutorial. Much better suggestion to leave the window in and tape it rather than fully removing it. And also with just loosening the bolts that fasten the window rather than removing them.
    Is your new actuator OEM or did you get an ebay version? The cost difference is so high I'm thinking it might the risk with an ebay version worth it.

    • @meatmanifesto

    Hi Rob,
    I have an issue with my mk4 golf git. The passenger lock wont lock/unlock with the remote central locking. It locks/unlocks fine with the key in the door. Will replacing the door lock module fix my issue do you think?
    TIA

    • @meatmanifesto
      @meatmanifesto  ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd check the wiring in the door hinge first, inside the large rubber grommet. Could be a split wire, if not yeah I'd change out that module before you can't open the door at all.
