Hi all,
1991 turbo RL. Couple of problems......
Central door lock. When I hit open all door mechanisms rise, but the left rear drivers passenger door goes up a bit but won't open. I have to hit the open button a second time and then it rises a little more and opens.
When I hit the lock button,the rear passenger side door mechanism will not go down. Ha e to open the door, push it down and then close it. What do I need to replace or fix?

The radio.... I have the cassette radio and a separate CD player. Time to replace and bring into the 21 century. What sat nav radio phone interfaces have most people replaced these with?

My alarm fob won't work. Big clumsy thing. What have others replaced these with?

I just replaced the motor module on the pax seat. Doing the same with the driver seat next week.

Thanks in advance

If it's the original one, personally, I wouldn't touch it, for two reasons: Modern stereos look really ghastly in these cars, in my opinion. Just makes the car look molested. This follows onto the second reason - if/when you come to sell the car, original cars are worth more, People tend to prefer original cars - even if they want to change the stereo anyway. I'm not saying an original stereo will necessarily add value, but it just makes the car more desirable and to stand out from all the other ones which have had the stereo ripped out.

So, if you really want to change it, make sure you keep the old one.

I went to great lengths to find someone who could repair the original stereo from my own car.
