I used to have this issue. When you lock the car (stay in the quiet place so you can concentrate), do you hear a hissing sound like air escaping from somehwere within the doors? If yes, there's there's vacuum leak or disconnection somewhere. I traced the tiny vacuum pipe and fixed it. If not you should prolly have a rewire get it checked. UmmTwins2: Hello house. Welldone for what u'r doing here. Pls help. my car is a VW golf 3; how do I make sure all the doors are locked such that my 2yr+ old son can't open them on the move? He's so curious and wants to open the door on a ride sometimes. I don't know how the central lock works cos even after pressing everything down, each door still unlocks when my son opens it. Thanks in advance. P.S. I be learner so pls be explicit, I don't understand how the central lock system works. |

What Gasket did he change? It sounds like a wiring issue. For the love of God, don't work on that car (I had the 2009 tsi) without getting it scanned first. and by professionals, If you're in Lagos, you can check Professor (08061282133) to scan it and fix any possible wiring issues, the guy is really good. I hope they haven't ruined the engine timing. If you happen to go there and the issue is mechanical (professor doesn't recommend mechanics because he doesn't trust them), take it to Gbagada (Ogun 08034682166); they helped me fix problems that defied the VW centre at Surulere for months. I hoped I helped. I don't want any human being to pass through what i passed through at the hands of incompetent mechanics  eRex: Heeellpp... VW Passat 07 FSI (manual gear) want to make my friend go bankrupt. Small thing as overheating has kept the car stranded for over a month. He had a burst pipe and d car started overheating. He called a Mech to change the pipe and gasket and after that the car has refused to start. They have tried several tricks to no avail... Changed valve, set timing but the car does not even crank. Well its his first car (which I advised him against)--- have had my share of vw madness.) Av asked him to scan but my friend is considering disposing the car..rather than spend any dime on it. For me oo I will slight ask how much is 07 Passat engine 4plug FSI... But for the love of profession is there a trusted Mech that can be recommended |

I tell you. The Tadeus name is one I had no issues with, but his response to his accuser is too unbecoming. Make I kuku dey look urvillagepeoplee: you are one dealer I respect so much in this forum and I always follow threads created by satisfied customers but for you to do this kind a thing shows no dealer is honest anywhere in Nigeria, Even one guy based in USA that use to give good auto advice on cartalk has been talking trash of recent that I lost the respect I use to have for him, how can I visit your lot to buy a car with my hard earned money and you say I can't test drive it or asked questions about its mileage or other things because you feel you are too big or too rich to answer customers. since you sir can be this dubious,then there isn't any honest dealers left in this auto section. I rather contact my in law in Germany to get me the C230 am looking for rather than waste my money on a refurbished scrap,the wait will be worth it at the end. too many scammers and dubious dealers in this auto section. |

You want to repaint the car? I am very wary of these painting I see being done on cars in nigeria; they're disgusting to say the least. Its always too shiny, and there are always ripple below the surface. After a few months, the paints begins to look like they were plastered on the car, it doesn't look like a second skin anymore. Where would you be painting this bmw? Shagati: No vex bros. Next weekend is looking free. Will get the struts installed and send in to the paint shop |

I have always heard that the correct thing to do after increasing your wheel size is to calibrate your odometer/speedometer or brainbox or something to compensate, else you'll be having marginally wrong readings on your speedometer. For instance, 18inch wheels will cover more distance on one revolution than 17inch wheels. Has anyone every carried out this measure before? I am an intending e4 owner, but my issues already include the low clearance of the car (the slope to my gate is pretty steep, and it removed my bumper the first time i tried it on my Passat).
I dey fear, abeg, I need my future BMW to be in top shape at all times because I intend to use it for a while. |

You can just search Car Talk for golf 4 reviews, such topics have been beaten to death. I remember someone mentioning that it has electric issues a lot. From my small interaction with it, I see the car as a weakling. That was why I bought a golf 3 as my first instead of golf 4. |
