Door Locks on V8V
Discussion
Hi all,
Has anyone else had any problems with the door locks on their V8V ?
For the past couple of weeks, when I lock up the car, either the driver side or the passenger side doesn't lock. When I unlock and relock, the other door remains unlocked - this goes on and on alternating sides for a while...
I have seen the thread on the DB9 locks and tried unlocking and locking 3 times with the key, and also tried the other fob, but no luck.
People are probably watching me saying 'look at that paranoid Aston owner' as I go from one side of the car to the other checking and rechecking the doors - I hate to think about how many times I left the car open before I noticed that both doors weren't locking !!!

this just started happening to me (again)... I had a similar problem in the past, although I swear it wasn't quite as bad, but rick fixed that for me by reflashing the locks. I just had a service done and now they've stopped locking again - and it really does alternate, I swear that didn't happen last time!

Had mine fixed yesterday and they ended up changing both latches. I had it done under warranty, but asked for the invoice anyway for the service history.The latches themselves were only £63.45 + VAT each.
The labour would have been the killer at £375 + VAT (I am sure this would be cheaper elsewhere)
