Central Locking issue

Guys,

Looking for some help, when i get in and start my gti the doors automatically lock themselves after a few seconds.
I have a slight worry that one day i will start it get out and it will lock itself, do any of you know if this setting can be turned off somehow?

Cheers
 
Not as far as i'm aware, only issue is that i haven't got the "blipper" for the remote locking so only have the key.
 
usally water in the actuator, keep meaning to replace mine/dry it out etc, but cant be arsed lol, just be careful not to leave the keys in the car and slam the door, didthis once, luckerly it was on the drive and the spare key was inthe house!
 
I only ask about the aftermarket alarm as some lock the doors when the engine is started.

But yeah its moisture in the mechanism, when my SRi did it i took the door apart and took the mechanism out, covered it in WD40 and grease then put it back in and it was fine from then on.

a door actuator would do this yeah. once the car is locked does it continue to try and lock itself over and over again?

Nope, doesn't try to keep locking. Just does it the once and then thats it.

Guess i'll give my actuator a squirt at the wkend then :)
