GMInsite Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 So i can no longer open my drivers door from outside or inside , Somethings gone wrong and the lock just spins and it wont open from inside because of the deadlock ( i don't have central locking either) . What i want to know is can i get a new lock from VW and be able to use the same key again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamAtkinson Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 As far as im aware the answer to this question is no, but it could just be springs and plates have frozen given the weather recently and when you've put your key in to open the door its shattered the parts. All the parts are replacable so I'd look in to that before going down the expensive route of new barrels and keysSam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMInsite Posted December 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Im going to look like a royal tat for jumping through the passenger side all the time . I was going to take it to a garage to put all the stuff back together as i work right next to the garage i use so it could be done while im working and pick it up at lunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
