Bradders Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Guys couldn't get into car this morning. Both locks fired ok, but the doors just wouldn't open at all. Nothing. Any ideas? Nicked the missus car as I couln't be bothered with AA this morning. I'm assuming its down to the -4C, as it never normally gets off the drive when it is that cold, but tell me otherwise.

slimjim Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Bit late now... but I bought some of that rubber grease/lube stuff everyone was reccomending. Do your windows drop? Tried a hair drier on the seals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Ah I see so I could just be the doors frames actually frozen? Feel a bit better about that. The windows didn't drop no. Is this a problem? Bradders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjim Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 If the windows didn't drop, it could be the windows are frozen shut. It's only happened to me once. I just left it in the garage and waited for it to warm up (which was a WEEK later!) Im sure some peeps may be able to help. Have a searchy, I remember there being a few threads on it.
