    The best most aCCURATE steps to change it, I did it and it was the easiest ever. Thank you, will definitely subscribe to you, Gunther charged me over 1,200 last time I went because they have put a sensor alarm to send me back to the dealership and guess what it was just for the gas tank cap!!!!! they did found more reasons for me to spend those 1,200 , sweaR NEVER GO BACK, even if I have to sell this car that I love. Thank you Deutsche you save me this time. most grateful!!!!

    This is all good but I can't open my trunk to replace the latch. Tried climbing inside and pushing the white latch to the side while pushing on the door from the inside and having someone actuate the trunk handle electric switch from the outside but nothing happens. Door is securely locked in place. 2014 Jetta Sportwagon

    What are the 2 screws, 1 in each handle recess, that you initially removed? I purchased a 2013 GLI (second hand) & when I changed the trunk latch these two screws were missing from the trim. I would like to replace them, but I am finding it impossible to find out what type of screws that they actually are. All of the VW parts websites do not show these screws in their trunk trim diagrams. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello, this is nice video.
    I have a problem with B5 2003 VW Passat V6 GLX Wagon. My trunk is shut and cannot be opened by Keyfob / Door button / manual metal key in the rear trunk door. When I try to open using key fob , the FUSE#14 blows up. I have replaced few of them already. Please let me know if the actuator replacement will resolve this problem. Also, How do I open the trunk door, that wont respond to key as well. This is a wagon, so I can crawl from the rear set. Thanks in Advance..
    Also, what is the part number for my car?

    How long should this take? I have a mechanic who will be charging me $90 an hour, $60 for the new latch (Volkswagen) and gave me an estimated total of over $300. That seems very excessive.

    Do you remove the plastic cover in the trunk of the Mk5 gti's the same way? There is 2 screws, 1 in each handle recess but the plastic feels stuck. Do I need to just pull hard and pop it off or is there a different way to remove the shroud? I'm trying to replace my old trunk latch with a new one I purchased from your store but I have been unsuccessful at getting to remove the old latch. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    @timothyolmos5918 3 года назад

    The problem with my MK5 Jteea is a little different: it will not open by using either the key FOB or the switch that is in the door. (I had a similar problem due to a bad FOB but the door switch still worked) I have changed the latch, but the problem is not solved.
    I do not think that the problem is an electrical one with the door, for the gas cover release switch that is next to the one for the trunk operates normally. Why ideas?

      On my 2008 Volkswagen GTI I am having a hard time getting the inside panel to come off. The clip on either side closest to the hatchback hinge is very difficult to get it to come away. The second problem is the star-like screws that hold the latch on. It is not a normal torx type screw. Hopefully O'Reilly's has a tool that will fit this type of torx. But the video does not show in detail how this back panel comes out or how that latch is actually unscrewed so good luck.

      You aren’t kidding everything on these VW’s is so ridiculously over engineered it’s stupid. While my TDI gets decent fuel mileage it’s not 40+mpg.33 average and 36 hiway is the best I get. Nor that diesel has hit 3.10 a gallon around here I’m kinda wishing I had gone with a Toyota or Nissan gasser..
