|  Door Lock I have a 2007 superb and got the automatic door locking activated. In the last few days I have noticed that when I drive off all the doors lock and then the front passenger door lock opens again.  This also happens if I use the door switch. When I use the key fob the door remains locked, has anyone come across this problem. Thnaks in advance. |

| Re: Door Lock Hi Never had this problem on my superb and can't recall anyone else with similar circumstances. As it's a 2007, perhaps the quickest way might be to have it looked at under warranty. |

| Re: Door Lock Door locks are a very well known B5.5 problem. Aside from warranty issues (why not let them fix it?) the approach I would take would be a VAGCOM scan and then to home in on the microswitches in the lock and latch assembly. These are lousy puny cheap switches (you can get them in Maplins) soldered onto a pc board in such a way that the joints are guaranteed to break. There is no provision to accomodate the effects of vibration - which is severe on a door edge or the effects of thermal cycling. Japanese car for me next time if they get their diesel engines sorted out - but I'm not convinced they have yet. rotodiesel. |
