MikeyM Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Had an early start and it was -2 , but found my drivers door would not unlock. Climbed in passenger side and tried handle etc..no joy. Drove to work and it was OK. .. Is there a potential issue looming or are the locking systems that susceptible to freezing Temps ? Quote
H1979 Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 My doors and boot were frozen solid the other day, the handle would move ok, but the doors were rock solid. A few jugs of luke warm water round the whole window and door frame sorted it. Quote

That I have experienced with cars in the past, but even when I climbed inside the little button that locks and unlocks the doors would not budge a millimeter! Quote
H1979 Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Ah I see, misunderstood your post, apologies. That I have no idea about in afraid. Fingers crossed it was a one off. Quote
GreenLandy Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I'm finding that my remote unlocking isn't working at all well when it's sub-zero. Damn irritating. Quote

garak112 Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 When it freezes I find my drivers door doesn't unlock and I have to climb through the passenger side. Elegant. Quote
