    My key fob operates all the central locking apart from the front passenger door. It was working a couple days ago,then just stopped. I checked for power to the lock actuator today and it had a positive feed in, but the motor does nothing !

    p38 Door lock/latch availability.

That was until i started looking today for a near side front door lock/latch, as my central locking actuator has given up working :doh: Am i...

    Hi Datatek,i don'tthink the noise is coming from elsewhere. As i lift the bonnet you can clearly hear the noise coming from inside the eas compressor box. Also the vibration/noise coincides with the eas operating only. Its like an out of balance or a worn bearing type noise to me ! Actually...

    Hi Wammers,yes i first put them in upside down.Doh !! Then refitted them as their supposed to and no difference. If i hold the compressor whilst its running,it seems quieter but the noise inside is still there to a degree. Hi Kooky,just measured my compressor damper bolts. M.5 with 8mm...
