How do you remove rear window switch. Do I need to remove the whole door card? Thanks

[@jackli8403]

By following your video, I replaced my main speaker/woofer. Thanks mate.

Great video, helped me fix my Tiguan

[@SuperBumbleb]

What year is your Tiguan and what part did you have to replace?

[@jorgemartola846]

So freaking awesome, thank mate.

[@NZNow]

Thanks 👍 Do you have tutorial how to disassemble this lock?

[@johnm000]

Hey great video, thank you! I need to replace the front left lock actuator on my 2016 Passat and this video is going to be so helpful!!! Did you have to remove the window before you took out the actuator or did you just wind the window up? (I can’t quite tell from the video) Thanks again!

The glass was in the down position in our video, but it doesn't matter either way on the Tiguan.

Great video 👏🏽 Thank you…👍🏽

Thanks for watching!

Hello wonderful video, Unfortunately I need to get to the cable connecting the exterior handle and latch... And replace? My friends outer door handle does not open the door.. inside handle works fine.. So A few steps deeper.. Before I pull the door apart and guess.. Any hints? Other videos to see those extra steps Thank you.

You have the same video for the Jetta. It must be very similar

My mk 1 2015 Tiguan , the auto lock keeps trying to lock the door passenger side . I could hear it , which made me find out it wasn’t locking anymore with key fob. Would you say this is the same problem as in your video .

This is a great video. My 2019 Tiguan's driver door won't lock. When locking is activated and all other doors are locked, the driver's can still be opened. I've read it might the lock's actuator at fault. Is the actuator part of the lock assembly you had in your hand at the end? Any ideas if it's fixable or easily replaceable? Thanks.

[@SelectVehicleSpares]

Yes, the door lock assembly contains the actuator, and would need to be replaced as a complete unit.

[@ms10241024]

@@SelectVehicleSpares Thanks for the response. Yes, I ended up getting my local garage to replace the entire assembly. They also did some jiggery-pokery with the car's computer, so there's no way I could have done this one myself. In all, this was a very irritating way to make myself £300 poorer. Despite not being a VAG specialist they told me they've done quite a few of these.

Hi I’ve replace the locking barrel but now it won’t lock or unlock using the key any ideas Thanks

[@adnan.hasanhodzic]

I have a problem on my VW Tiguan 2010, cant open driver side door from outside, but can from inside. Is it a lock issue, so it needs to be replaced ? Thnx

[@SelectVehicleSpares]

Yes, it's very likely that the lock is faulty. It may also be worth checking that the cable from the outer handle to the lock is still attached correctly.

[@ilovejesus84]

Hopefully I get a reply….so I think I may need an Actuator…my door power locks doesn’t work from the outside. I have to manually open the driver side door. Now after a few months of doin that, my car power doors makes a noise like it’s trying to lock or whatnot while driving 😂😂😂

[@SelectVehicleSpares]

It's hard to say for definite without seeing the vehicle, but yes it does sound like an issue with the lock itself.

[@prodigyg2240]

Just did it on my 2021 vw Tiguan at only 52k miles😢
