Hi Guys,

My '95 300TDi has an issue with the rear door lock.

It doesn't operate on the central locking but does lock and unlock with the key and it opens fine.

Is this going to be the actuator?

Is it repairable, or just a straight replace?

Thanks

Jason
 
Don't get confused with that D2 stuff Jason, D1's have a single actuator.
You will have to pull the door card off it's fixings but only the area the has the sub speaker if u have one, so that is the outer edge of the door card and you will get acess to the actuator.

It may need just a slight adjustment on it's mounting screws or the the grease inside has hardened, so you can either drill a small hole in the case and splash some WD40 inside or as I did and split the case and re-grease the motor and track then tape it back together and refit and re-adjust that stuff is not a problem for me.

You can get a replacement slave actuator from Maplin's at around £8 or was and fit that, although it's not plug n play you will have to cut plugs off and re solder.

Thats it job done :)
