key don't work in drivers door??

Gaz · 12-11-09, 02:40 AM

The key on my coupe quattro does not turn or un lock the door on the drivers side..

Its been like that since the day i bought it.

Has someone replaced the drivers side door handle mechanism? and forgot to swap the locks over?

, Or could it just be that the lock has been refitted 'up-side-down' ??

Dismantle it and check it. If it has been changed, it isn't difficult to fix so your key can be used.
