Volkswagen Golf drver central locking not working

the only way to find out is get in touch with the dealer but most cases they will try any sell the whole lock setup but may not be as expensive as you may think if you can fit it yourself as that will cut out the labour involved

cheers mate,do you have any ideas for the elctric window problem above this 1.
thanks again ben

Hi
My old golf had this problem & it bugged me for a while, theres a paddle that goes from the barrel to the locking mechanism in the door, this metal paddle sometimes snaps which makes the key turn.
If you go to a VW dealer & explain 2 some one in the parts department they may still have the part for it

You need to replace the paddle on the back of the door key barrell it is sold in a kit from dealers you do not need to take door card off just remove handle,when the door is open look by the catch that secures the door shut you will find a blanking cap if still fitted or you will see the bolt you need to undo to remove handle take out this bolt and the handle slides and then pulls out you will probably have to remove the broken end of the paddle out of operating mechanism you will see this if you look through where you have taken handle out
