Door not opening first press
Discussion
Can anyone help with this problem? The driver's door doesn't open first time, I have to keep pressing the button several times before it unlocks the door, it makes the right noise just doesn't make the click and spring the door open. I have just swapped the control box over with the passenger door (that works fine) and the drivers door still won't work, I can only assume there is something in the door catch that isn't quite catching? Has anyone had any experience of this part? I don't want to start unbolting the catch without knowing what I'm in for?
I've got the same problem, and the guys at Track V Road have swapped lots of bits, not making any difference. I find if you pcuh the button very quickly after stopping the engine it nearly always works first time.
On the outside, tend to push the button quickly and very firmly, but still have to stand there like a lemon for 10-15 secs (which seems like an age) before the mechanism 'achieves' it's objective and opens the door.
Everyone looks asking 'Why doesn't that guy get in his car? He's paid for his petrol and it's raining!'....
Only one press on the button is actually required - you can hear the mechanism constantly trying to release the door... inconvenient but obviously a difficult fix - the electric motor and/or its connections at the door catch is my TOP suspect!!

Mine has this problem, the dealer reckons its a faulty window position sensor. They have been trying to locate a new one for a month with no joy.Luckily its the passenger door.

Is it near Denia? My Mum & Dad have a place there and Dad thought he saw him in the supermarket a while back?
Yes it's in Javea about 20mins from Denia. It's a great area, i should probably try and drive it one of these days
