The part arrived last week Paul, it all looks legit but have not had it fitted yet.

I completed this today on the front passenger door of my car using the park linked on ebay earlier (slightly faster train from China I guess?), all working but took a lot longer than expected due to a screw dropping inside the door.
In the instructions from IT it stated Quote:
The TORX screw is a screw in a splined insert that is a friction fit into the plastic holder "part 3", so pushing on it has the effect of moving the plastic holder, unless you push a bit hard when the friction fit fails and you are left with a screw in the bottom of the door. Door card off, speaker removed, fortunately the screw was steel in an aluminium door so 20 mins of blindly fishing with a magnet and it was found. Also seems that I do have the handle lights installed, but they must have all failed (I assumed that they were not fitted) - going to order four of those from China I think Still cant complain, keyless locking fixed for less than a tenner |

Had my local garage fit the new sensor today since the car was there to have the winter tyres swapped over (while it was snowing outside )
Anyway, with a bit of fiddling around he got the sensor changed over and working but by the time it got home it had stopped working. Frustrating and no idea what to do now. |

Odd, I have done two on my car - both working flawlessly - have you got VCDS?

No i dont Paul but the mechanic does, I will have the car back to him by the end of the week and will get him to check into it. He did go into VCDS after he replaced the sensor so its all a bit strange.
