Drivers Door Locking Mechanism

vaudaz · Oct 31, 2017

Hi all, I've seen a few posts about the locking issues. My drivers door isn't always unlocking with the button on the key fob, but is with the key. It tries to lock every time I drive away, but can't. Weirdly it does lock when using the fob to lock the car.

I'm guessing a new mechanism is needed, but can't find the part number or anywhere to buy them. It's a 2007 Leon FR.

Anyone got any pointers?

Cheers

i got a second hand one from ebay.

doesnt matter what leon it comes from (providing its a mk2).

Its a pain to do the job though.

If u attempt to do it yourself let me know and i can give some pointers.

I did mine a few weeks ago.

I got my door lock from Sere earlier this year for around £130 or somewhere around that price for my Cupra. As said above its a proper pain getting the door panel off (and more so to get it back on).

I did find this after I had mine done though could be worth a go.

Thanks for the replies guys, been finding every locking mechanism for the Mk2 except drivers door. Seat wouldn't confirm a part number for me, but they quoted £177.66 for the part which is daylight robbery!

thats what SEAT quoted me aswell. Unfortunately unlike the Mk1 Leons they dont share door locks with the Golf etc which is why I think they cost so much :\
