Hi all,
I know there have been threads about central locking but thought worth posting my question and doubts.
Central locking has gone erratic, back door opens, doesn't open, central unlocking stops working, horn sounds to warn me for (apparantly) no reason, etc.
Noticed today a strange one or two second buzzing noise from under the instrument panel when turning on car prior to starting. (a noise over and above the normal humming noise I usually get)
Yesterday I had fun jumping in big muddy puddles with the car.
Any logic to all this?

cheers

Sounds like yu may have a leak at bottom of windscreen/ air intake section. Might be worth checking this area over.
