Hey Everyone,

I really hope you guys can help me.
Basically I've bought a 2002 Volkswagen Golf SE (Estate)
However, I'm having two issues with it & I hope someone can help before I explode.

First Issue:
On the rear passenger door behind the drivers door, the door won't open when I unlock
the car. The switch *sometimes* pops up which shows the door is open but when I pull the handle from out, it doesn't open. I have to go inside & pull the lever to open the door.

Strangely, once this is done, and you close the door, it can be opened from the outside without any problems whatsoever. Do you think I need to put some oil in the door lock mechanism or something? I'm thinking could be jammed or something first time? then it opens. I've checked the child lock - it's off.

Second Issue:

My car alarm was going of constantly yesterday, couldn't get a nights rest at all.
Took it to the dealers this morning, they said they stripped the tailgate and reconnected the wires. This stopped the "Luggage Compartment Light" which kept flashing on & off, even though the tailgate was firmly closed. Anyhow, that has sorted the issue kindof.

I've been looking at forums and it looks like the rear washer jet may have a split or something in it. I definately know it works because I use it on the motorways, but I'm worried incase there is water which is messing about with the electronics causing the alarm to go off. Does anyone know how to sort this issue out? (i.e. where I can find the rear washer pipe)? - any pictures would be a great help, i'm new to VW cars...

Special Thanks,
Jake
