Absolutely brilliant, thanks. Top tip with the glass! To be honest if I’d been doing this blind I’d have stopped at the glass bit and given up for fear of breaking the glass or the wonder mech. But your solution is so simple! I’ll try this this weekend 👍🏻
Thanks for the video it helped massively for replacing the central locking module on my T5
One of the better 'how to do it' videos out there. Well done.
Not all heroes wear capes!! Thanks for doing this video, I've been having problems with mine for a couple of years. I keep putting it off because I could never find decent instruction/videos. I bought the replacement parts well over 18 months ago and Your video is going to be a godsend. 👍
Thanks so much for this video, I followed your instructions to the letter & completed the task within a couple of hours... there is no way I could have figured out how to do this without your step by step guide, so thank you once a again!
JUst fiited a new lock unit in drivers door and new windows switch this helped greatly cheers.
Thanks for the video, sorted the locking on my van.
I too struggled with the conecter release from the module, had to undo the module then drop it down still conected to see better how it unclipped.
Thanks again 👍
Great video.I needed to disable ( for a short time ) the passenger central locking and your video was perfect.
Thanks.
Thanks for this mate, done the drivers side today, took me longer to release that clip under the module than to do the rest 👍🏻
I like how you've kept the original T5 front and funked it up rather than going 5.1 👍 looks great
Thanks for this. Swapped out passenger side actuator today. Couldn't have done it without your vid. Much appreciated 👍
Great video mate. Helped me out changing me passenger lock. Cheers
Great video Lee, all I would add is to suggest that folks disconnect the window motor, because mine seemed to have a life of their own going up and down randomly whilst I was replacing the lock!
Lol sounds very random!
Dude thank you so much, just fixed the passenger side on my 2006 Transporter by following your vid, massive help!
Thanks Lee, done this today on passenger side. Great vid!
Thank you Lee, this video was a great help to me I really appreciate you putting this video out, I brocken my cable sorting my speaker out which was driving me mad vibrating, but all good now, and no vibrating speaker ,thanks to your good self, nice one
Thanks so much, it's true, no one has done a video on this. I even looked all over in the German language first. I was especially glad to see how you handled the window.
Great job. I will do the same tomorrow. Thank you for the tutorial
Just what i needed, thank you for making this video!
bloody brilliant matey, clear and concise,,, magic
Wish I watched this at the start and not half way through after getting stuck... GREAT VID THANKS!!!
Great guide, made it easy. Just don't put your window all the way down when trying to remove the metal door card.
Thanks a lot for this. I used it today to replace locks in both doors and it was very helpful - cheers!
Very helpful thank you. I have just finished doing this on my T5 passenger door
I don't even own one but love watching the videos on the camper.
Excellent vid thank you your method works perfectly. I used a phone holder suction cup. I had no tape😂
Excellent I was having trouble with mine and now I know how to remove the door panel I didn’t have a clue yesterday until I checked this out today many thanks
Thanks SpyderLEE
I have exactly that issue, been bugging me for months! you are brilliant, just need to find someone to do this for me! my t5 is 1994 2.5 tdi hope it doesn't have the steel plate covering the glass. Will defiantly buy vw part second hand. Cheers mate.
just managed to sort the lock thanks to this video, nice one!
Brilliant!! Thank you for your awesome video.. One handed replacement !! impressive! You've inspired me!
Perfect, this is exactly what wrong on our T5. Very helpful!
Thanks mate, couldn’t find all of this info together anywhere. Subbed
Good video thank you.
I few things I have come across while doing mine.
1 you dont need to remove the cap on the lock, as it will come out when you remove it the lock anyway.
2 when I started I thought I had all the tools I needed, but I found my Torx bit extension was to fat to fit in hole in door, so I bodged a flexible one by filing it down.
My cap won't come off, have backed the screw right out.
Thank you for posting this video, it certainly helps with all the unexpected bits having seen someone else do it, I used an eBay lock, let's see how long it lasts 👍🚐
Just changed mine. Saved ££££££s by following this video. Cheers Mate. 👍
Nice job, thanks for the video !
Thanks so much, without this video l would still be attempting to replace the lock at Christmas...Being thick even l could follow these instructions and tips...Keep up the great work. Cheers :-)
Great job fixing it with one hand whilst filming. 👍🚐
Bloody brilliant thank you!!
An other well explaned video love wachting these vids
Just done mine. When you replace an original one, mine was 16 years old, it has a plastic bracket on the lock which is riveted to both the lock and door casing. The rivets need drilling out to get the case off.
When I fit the new lock, I left that bracket riveted to the old lock.
If your door wont close after fitting the new lock, check and adjust the alignment. It's quite fussy.
Hoping you see this. A lot of the ones I'm looking to order just look like they come without the white plastic casing thats on the original. Are you saying you just fitted a new one as it came, without the white casing( as is on the original)?
@@Ccfc595 long time ago so honestly i don't remember. I would have made sure it went back as it should be so if something was missing on the new part then I would have added the old bracket to it or whatever we're talking about.
I would remember if there were any major issues fitting it, probably obvious once you get in there and do it.
@Martin_84 Thanks Martin. Weird one to be honest as the new ones look like they dont come with the lock pin (bit that pops up and down in the door card when locking and unlocking)
Great vid thanks for uploading this
Thanks I think you just solved two problems for me. Windows are sticking watching this video I think I need to check those bolts
Thanks for this!! Brilliant!
Love your videos and your van.
That was super helpful - thank you.
Need to do my passenger side tomorrow 😞
Hi Lee many thanks for the Video great help just followed it makes the job less daunting
Great video as always Lee! Such a good feeling when you fix something like that isn't it. I can hear it in your voice at the end :)
I was really getting fed up of walking back to the van to lock it with the key 😞. Much happier now
Great video. Doesn't look too daunting.
Life saver this video! Cheers mate
That's great information to know universally.
😀 cheers
Mate you’re a legend
thanks boss. you just got me out of a right pickle
Great vid, thanks
Brilliant thanks.
Great video thanks for the help, keep at it!
thanks a lot! good job m8!

Excellent instructions, just done both front doors, thank you for taking the time to do this.
Top man for uploading this Lee, just done mine now. 👍👍
Thank you very much for this. Very useful and certainly helped. I'd buy you a beer :)
Great video buddy...i have the same problem. Going to do it myself now
Top video. Great tips. Good work. Keep it up. 👋👍
Awesome thank you.

Yes mate the only vid out there!!

Very helpful video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great vid.
thanks man, it Is some time ago you uploaded this video , but it is still helpful
Brilliant video just about to undertake this myself on my t5. Sadly I think the sliding door mechanism is broken to. Very intermittent to work. Anyway
cheers for the info
My sliding door is too. I will change it eventually 👍
Best video ever
Brilliant
Informative as ever sl. ..👍
Thanks 😀
Thanks very useful
Thanks so much for taking the time to share this, so helpful. One quick question please; I’m struggling to find a genuine used lock on eBay, is a Mk5 Golf lock a suitable replacement?
ive just subscribed tut channel lad,saw your t5 video first and liked what i saw.
Cheers 👍😁
Thanks so much !!!!!!!!!!!
This is really helpful thanks! I need to do this but my electric window motor has also failed so I can’t do the step where you masking tape the glass up. Is there a workaround or another way to do that step that you know of?
Love ya-pt. 2
Ok will search out howto thanks mate , I will let you know how I get on!
👍👍👍 Top useful vid as always. Cheers
🤘
Thanks great explanation saved ne £150 😊
Great all the way
Good video! Nice little tips and informative.
I also noticed you haven't done the additional door seal upgrade you should look into them what a difference it makes when closing the door.
I was hoping to paint the insides of the doors first, but like usual not got around to it.
@@SpyderLEE fair enough lol. Once you have done that it's worth it.
Nice on bud, did that on mine (passengers side) a few weeks back but didn't have the time to record it as well. Top video as always! 😎♥️
Cheers mate. I had the advantage of already taking off the lock the week before to see if that was the problem. So knew how to do it quickly 😬
Hey what did you fing as i have the same issue!
This video has given me the confidence to tackle my faulty central lock in the passenger door, many thanks!
What did you search for to find a second hand OEM unit? When I search it seems to come up with golf versions, are they the same?
Awesome video, thanks - I’m having trouble with a few things. Firstly, getting that plug off the lock actuator when it’s still mounted in the door - any ideas? Also when I reassembled the door plate and door card, I’m finding that my (manual) window winds up OK most of the way, but suddenly feels more difficult to raise the last 3 inches to the top. What have I done wrong here?
I have this exact problem, always unlocks but intermittent when trying to lock on passenger side, I know where to look now👍
How do you disconnect the wiring block connector from the lock unit??? Great video by the way,I'm replacing the window regular panel,very helpful just can't get past the block connector.
Brilliant, thank you. Only my back doors lock ! Incidentally I’ve done 180,000 miles on the same clutch, is that unusual ?
Love to see you doing a passenger door when it's deadlocked and won't open at all.
YEAH THAT'S MY PROBLEM TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi thanks for the video it has inspired a solo effort on my van but can you suggest a reliable supplier of the used part you used?
Very interesting min manual window but my doing the same thing
Excellent video. Now what about a locked passenger door when you kill the handle inside it’s double locked so lath goes up but straight back down. Can’t get into the passenger door from inside and outside!
Love ya
I want to just get a good look at the central locking unit for same door on my 08 T5, so o can order a new one for the auto electrician to install, and check if something is just loose in there the lock button moves a bit when I press the remote but not enough to do anything. Can I just remove the panel inside the door card to see the central locking unit and check if anything is loose in there. Don’t think I could get lock out with only one arm.
