SamAtkinson Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 The locking issue that you are facing is down to the bad weather over the winterOne of the pieces that makes up the barrel has broken or is on its way outThere is a kit for £15 quid off the internet, I will post the link up when I get home tonightThe window droping isnt a fault, what happens on the a lupo is when you hold the key open the windows drop, when you hold the key in the lock position the windows rise againWith your broken lock the mechanisum is getting confused and thinking you are holding the key in the open position and dropping your windows supprising that only one falls howeverIts not a hard job changing the components just a bit fiddlySam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99hjhm Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 You need to take the lock barrel out and lubricate it. The windows rolling down is a lock mechanism issue I would thing, guy's Golf at work does the same thing, not cheap from the dealers.
