My son recently bought a Leon as his first car and had some glitches, front passenger and drivers rear both sticking locks- central locking n/w. Lubricated externally, changer the fob battery = basics. He came round unable to open the passenger from inside or out today, searched for door card removal and came across this gem of a video! Used this to fix the front lock and also applied the same theory to the drivers rear which wouldn’t open from the outside after unlocking without first time opening from inside then was fine until locked again, drill and spraying fixed this similar issue the same!! Most grateful for your tutorial!!

IT WORKED ON Seat Altea 2007. For 2 years I had all 4 doors with this issue (I could hear a buzz when trying to open the door, but could only open from inside). I finally decided to order the locks and install them myself to save some money. Before that, I found this video and gave it a try. On the rear doors I had to remove the locks due to insufficient space to operate (it takes 5 minutes more). IT WORKED INSTANTLY. THANKS.

I done this trick to my SEAT LEON mk2, which had the same problem (central locking not working/sticking) and after spraying wd40 and letting it soak-in, I wiped everything down and sprayed some grease into hole and then sealed it with some silicone sealant. That was 2 yrs ago (2019) and it's worked perfectly ever since!! I also sprayed rear door locks with wd40 as they were sticking too. Both have worked without problems since.

Worked on my wife’s 2010 Seat Leon. Unlocking the doors wouldn’t unlock the passenger side door and had to be opened from inside. Started off intermittently and then wouldn’t unlock at all for the last 3 months. After this fix left the WD40 to soak and penetrate for an hour after which the door unlocked and could be opened from the outside. Thanks. Great fix!

Awesome fix! Works great on my Leon 2010 1.8 TSI! I used spray grease which took a little longer to get things unstuck but I think will last longer as it doesn't dry up as fast. I just needed to shake the door in and out a couple of times for it to loosen things up. Probably best to use a bit of WD40 first which works great to loosen the mechanism and then continue to pour in some grease. Bottom line: Brilliant! Rachel Burridge, you are the man!

I had to do this and also heat the mechanism with a hairdryer to soften the grease. Works fine now!

[@Nerven86]

Thanks!! Works perfectly fine even for the back side. Seat Leon 1P 1.8TSI

[@Riz1786]

How what, steps did u take to remove the rear ones as they r different to front?

[@rafmo7413]

I did exactly this on 3 doors on my Seat Leon and it works a treat, doors no longer stick and lock/unlock without any issues, love this Video! Also I was told if you use a silicone spray it might be better as it wont dry out like WD40 can, allegedly.

[@Frostensen]

Isn't wd40 degreaser as well as lubricant? If you put silicone spray only I don't know if it will decompose the oil that dried up and that "glued" the parts in the first place.

[@rafmo7413]

@@Frostensen I suspect it was greasy that's dried up or deteriorated in the end. Would be difficult to spray or get grease up in that actuator.

Both passenger doors were doing this on my Cupra. Many thanks for a perfect fix! I've sent you the remaining balance of my bitcoin account as I don't use it any more, just a thank you for sharing 👍 it's not a lot though lol. 😂 Definitely have to angle slightly upwards from where the hole is or you'll hit a plastic part inside the module and also drill slowly in stages. Thanks!

F#cking marvelous!!! it works. I have an issue that the door wont open from outside, you hear the little motor clicks when you touch the lock/unlock button, but it wont open from outside unless you first open from inside. I have also broken lock that I open to see what is on the other side of the hole you drill, there is a plastic grear that the motor moves and unlock/lock the outside (activates or not the handle from outside). Now I will seal the hole with something and done! Thanks Burridge!!!
