2008 3.0TDI Coupe - central locking snag

Bimble 7116
in Audi A5 Club

Featured Replies

My 2008 A5 Coupe has an intermittent door locking issue. This started with the NS door not always responding to the fob - easy to live with just unlocking it manually from within. Then the other day - the OS door stopped responding to the fob - locking me out.

Persistent pressing of the fob unlock button opened the NS door - eureka all was well. Since then, the OS door opened and shut normally in response to the fob then stopped working again- the NS door still works when it feels like it.

Initially I thought I had both door locking actuators going duff at the same time - until an experienced Audi tech told me that the door lock module was the culprit - so I have obtained a known to be good SH one. A picture of the replacement module is attached

My question is - where on the car is the module located...?

I think I saw something somewhere on line which showed it located in the boot behind the trim on the OS...? Can anyone verify that please - or advise otherwise?

Thank you in advance - any intel or shared experience will be greatly appreciated.

With best regards
