So literally just last week the central locking has been playing up.

Neither door will lock from the remote (both doors now need key locking), but both unlock from the remote. Sometimes the immobiliser doesn't engage either (the indicators don't always flash upon locking).

Also the auto lock, although it attempts to lock the doors, doesn't lock the doors.
And the drivers side wing mirror fails to come in/extend fully upon remote locking/putting in key to ignition.
A strange clicking sound? Sounds like its missing the cog or something that pulls/pushes it.

Still got warranty, so will be covered right?

On locking (or not) - likely to be a door latch "bouncing" - dealer can tell quickly. Both mine went in rapid succession - displayed exactly the same symptoms - warranty should certainly cover it

Re the mirror - sounds like it might have forgotten where it is/should be - you could try (gently) pushing it fully open by hand (disclaimer if it breaks - I know nothing!)

Yeah I guessed it may be the cables slipping on the locking.
And tried moving the wing mirror by hand but I reckon it's broken.
