Hello
Having recently purchased my 2002 passat the passenger rear door became stuck shut and only openable from the inside. I assumed the child lock to be at fault and preceeded to play about with all the controls and central locking. One of these being the manual child locking device which is housed in the jamb/latch part of the door, where you need a key to turn it and it should in good operation prevent the door from being opened from the inside. and yes that worked fine so now i have a doorthat is stopped from being opened from the inside with my problem of opening it from the outside still there. Doh!...
This is where i pin my hopes on some trusty repsonses to help me out in this niggling little problem. Having got in touch with the previous owner, i learnt the door gets sticky from time to time and all is needed is some grease to sort it out. Is there anyway i can get this door opened with out taking it all to bits and costing me a small fortune.
Thanks to all in advance,
kevin.
