First post:). Mk3 hatchback having boot lock problems: 1. The key fob needs two presses to release the boot lock - always, without fail, two, even if I'm standing next to it; the boot button in the cabin only ever needs one. 2. The switch on the boot itself has stopped working; I can hear the...

My tailgate doesn't open smoothly - it sticks at various different points, depending on how you open it. It's just had new gas struts, which are the correct ones for the car and fitted the correct way up, so it doesn't seem to be them. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any solutions?

I have a problem where intermittently, the tailgate pressure switch does not work, the interior tailgate switch does not work, the Drivers side rear door doesn't lock first time (or sometimes open), and the drivers door occasionally doesn't lock or open without using the key. I have replaced...

Can't open my tailgate wit key-fob or any other switches, only with the key now. It won`t open with the button on the dash or the key-fob or even the micro switch in the tailgate itself. Checked the connection - here is 12V voltage coming to the lock. Tested lock motor - works with 12V...

This appears to be a very common problem, especially for those who have facelift (53-07) cars without the key barrel fitted! Problem: Boot is closed and cannot be opened via remote or dash release. Cause: Faulty boot release motor, sticky latch, bad connections or most likely the drivers door...
