When i go to my car and unlock the doors with the remote the doors unlock and lock straight away, so i have to go to the passengers side and lock and unlock and quickly open the door before the drivers side makes the doors lock again.

is there a way for me to stop this, its getting rediculous and im sick of jumping passenger to driver and vice versa.

pls help me.

OE remote entry or aftermarket alarm?

umm im not shure but i brought it at jb hi fi and its gota mechanism that the guy put on the driver side door that controls the passenger side door also, that mechanism has malfuctioned and only knows how to lock and wont stay unlocked even by using the key you can feel that it is hold it on lock and the door cant do anything.

aftermarket. there lies your problem. the actuator that has been added to that door has either locked up or the rod has come loose and moved.

if you are mechanical - remove the door panel and undo the rod that is tied to your door. reposition it so that when the door is unlocked the actuator is almost fully in (if its done the way I do them.) that will fix your other problem as well

    • Gotcha, I mean that is at least good to hear. Are there signs, or troubleshooting tips to make sure the transmission is operating properly?
    • Well thats probably not gonna happen right away. LOL
    • I'm hoping I just don't have to do an engine rebuild NOW. Doesn't mean I won't do it at some point. I think a plus point is that the car presumably ran on or close to stock power nearly all it's life so far. Only the Owner I bought it from actually increased power with a standalone ECU and blew the OEM turbos. And after it got thee 2860s it wasn't driven an awful lot either.   That is what I meant. With the twins coming on so late (4500-5000rpm) I hope the rods won't want to exit the block prematurely. And it still being a 26 means the torque curve isn't gonna hike up all that much.   It didn't blow up on the dyno when they tuned it to 500ish crank. So I suppose it'll be okay for now. They did put a Tomei head gasket on first though which did not seal at all, and they redid it with a Cometic one. Which I hope won't be my water leak.   Mainly anything oil. So far all it has is the N1 pump, oil restrictor and a filter relocation kit with a cooler.
    • 15000? ish? Something like that anyway. It wasn;t so much a wear as a tear that then spread. Might have lasted a lot longer if not bothered by just one incident, whatever it was. I took a punt. They are really comfortable and do a good job of holding. My daughter HATED it when I first put them in, and probably still does now. She has sensory issues and hates the way they are all up your business. I'm 197cm and 95kg. Not fat or particularly wide, and the XL size seat is the rigth fit. If I was any fatter it would start to get too snug. Any skinnier and you'd possibly want the smaller width.
    • Mrs rs focus came factory with recaro cs  sportsters in it and they a pain in the ass to get in and out of with the really high bolsters, once you were in them they were one of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in
