Hi all
Just noticed a problem on my 2001 v6 Conn, with the central locking. When I unlock the car, one press of the plip unlocks just the drivers door, and a further press unlocks all of the other doors - most of the time! Sometimes the right hand rear door does not unlock, and the sill button remains down. However a further press of the plip then unlocks this door also. I have also noticed that when locking, the sill button on this door drops more slowly than the others. Are these problems an indication of imminent failure, or is a little penetrating oil required in a particular place? Anyone had a similar problem or got any thoughts?
Thanks
Andy
