Can someone help me please.

Unlocked car and went to open rear drivers side door but did not open.
Unlocked it by opening other rear door and opening with handle on inside and now opens and closes how it should from outside until once locked and unlocked again.

Would this be a central locking fault and what do I look for to replace.

Any help would be great fully received.

Its the central locking control unit inside the offending door. It was one of the first jobs I tackled when I recently got my p1 cupra. Theres a couple of guides on this fantastic site that will help you. I got a new control unit of the net for 75 quid and it can be replaced buy removing the material part of the rear door card providing you have the patience and nimble fingers.

Bit steep. Have a go yourself. Get the unit off ebay.
