So my 1990 200 TQ is having some door lock assembly issues. Currently, the car can only be unlocked from the passenger side door lock. The drivers side door lock doesn't open with the key.

Recently on top of that, the passenger side door handle won't close properly, and the door will get jammed when closing, and not close fully. The metal hinge will hit the car door panel, and not close while the handle stays up.

The car only unlocking from the passenger side is the biggest let down, but does anyone have solutions for these? Thanks.

You've got a great car! I'm a big fan of the I-5 20v turboes.

Door locks are a very common problem for audis, especially older ones. The most common problem concerns vacuum leaks. Its usually a simple replacement tube, but I don't recall where its located. try asking here: www.motorgeek.com

Otherwise talk to a trusted Audi VW mechanic.
