I have broken the drivers door handle trying to pull open a frozen door. The handle now sits proud by about 5 to 10mm and will not open the door after the car has been locked. After the car has been unlocked and opened from the inside the door can be closed and opened using the external handle...

Hi, after not using my car for 3 weeks (I left it locked in my garage); I started the engine to charge battery for 30 minutes. After that I locked the doors with the door sensor as I always do, and left away (everything normal) Some minutes after that I went back to the car and noticed the...

I ordered some 8mm OEM lock nuts from Europa Parts (N90894601) for a downpipe replacement. The nuts are copper (or copper coated) and easily go on and off the OEM 8mm bolt which appears to be 10.9 zinc. Even when I tightened to 30ft-lbs as a test once I loosened the nuts they were loose, the...

I have a rear right door lock mechanism that is not opening from the outside, even directly pulling on the external handle metal cable with my hand. I believe the part# is 3B4839016B, but I cannot verify without tearing the door apart (and that would take considerable time and swearing). My...

Weird part issue. I received my replacement passenger (and driver) lock mechanisms for my 1999. I went to install the passenger side, and tried to slide the lock cylinder back into place, and no go. I look in, and there is no slot for a lock cylinder connection. I verified the part# matched...

Ok, so all my doors have this happening now, where they don't open on the first pull (mostly after initially unlocking). I know how each door has to reset back to its original position before the door can be re-opened, and about the indexed cable on the outer door handle, and have played with...

Group - my driver side door and passenger door same side will not close. The door bolt on both doors is in the locked position and cannot move to open position. I would think there is an easy fix..but have not found it. there is an allen key below the lock ...not sure if that is answer but...

So sometimes I will unlock the door and I can see it physically pop up but the door does not unlock. I will generally have to cycle through locking and unlocking it a few times before the door actually unlocks. Is this a security feature and I just need to wait for it to time out or am I...

Hi all, Car is a 2008 Passat sedan, Komfort edition. Alarm just stopped arming out of nowhere. Led to a dead battery and I need to fix this. I can open and close my rear passenger door, and the display in the dash does not recognize I have opened the door. It always shows door is closed...

Is there a door key lock hidden under a cover by the handle on the passenger side for an emergency? Or did VW only put in one key lock on the driver's side door? Sorry for this odd question it's because my car was hit on the drivers side and the door was replaced but they didn't take out the...

I searched the forum, but couldn't find the problem that I'm currently having. My rear right door is behaving strange when i lock the car, when i hit the lock button all the doors lock, but the rear door sounds like it locks itself two times in a row, also i noticed that when I lock the car...

My 2004 B5.5 V6 GLX has been giving me trouble with the door not locking via the remote sometimes. I am alerted to it happening when the horn does not beep when hitting the lock button on my key fob. If I then insert the key and manually lock it all seems well for a while, then it will happen...

I have a 2005 tdi wagon. Like many people, my door handle stopped opening from the outside. I read online that the mechanism gets caught and by slamming the door and/or fiddling with the child safety lock, you can get the piece to pop back into place without taking the door apart. I tried this...

Hope this is the correct place to post with an issue. 2002 4motion 115K not particularly well taken care of (FAS 5HP-19 Trans) and it seems to be high RPM for the speed 2k 60mph +/-. I have watched the gear changes through VCDS lite it changes through all gears smooth, indicates TCC open then...

Greetings- I inherited this car from my wife and I'm finding a bunch of little "safety" things that I find to be a real pain in the ass!I went into VagCom and chose Cent.Locks to see if I could turn them off there. All I got a was a "no communication....." message. The other thing that I'd like...

So it's Saturday morning which means time to tackle the never ending honey-do list. First task is to replace the plastic window clips for the Passat B5 driver's side door. I did this by pulling the door panel out, not off. While preparing to reassemble everything, the door lock knob (black...

Wanted to change a broken microswitch on my drivers door, but ran into problem with unscrewing door lock bolts. Im pretty sure that Im using the right tool as i removed the first bolt easily, but the second one wont budge. Im scared that if i try again im gonna strip it completely and wont be...
