NUMBER 1

Is it common for the rear door mecahnism to not work ?

i have a central locking one and every time i unlock it the pin drops back down and i need to use the key in the lock and turn it whilst trying to open the door :(

this is ok unless you are like me and leave the keys in the back and because it's the commercial model i have to use a long bit of wire to retrieve them  :roll:  :roll:

NUMBER 2

The rear sills have rotted around the bolt that fixes the rear quater to the chassis.

is their anyway to fix this problem ?

any after market plastic cover like the TD5's have that you can buy ?

Hi, central locking is a very common problem sound's like you need a new motor, as for sill's without looking hard to say, is it the qrt panel or the steel sill section ?, if it's the sill it will need a bit of welding,

Hope this help's,

Please put your location in your profile then someone may ''pop'' round & have a look for you :wink: ,
