I've had a mooch about the forum but haven't found much that may be able to help.

 

A year or more ago I stopped being able to touch the door handle to lock and unlock my 2013 Skoda Superb MKII.

 

It used to work fine, then it started getting a bit intermittent, and then it started occaisionally trying to lock/unlock several times after a single touch, then it started to get more frequent, then it just seemed to die.

 

The key works fine as a standard key - the buttons work perfectly and the keyless start/stop works fine (occaisionally has a hissy fit and says it can't find the key, but that's short-lived).

 

I did see a post by @nicnorman in a MKIII sub-forum suggesting to check the loom between the door and the chassis as the cables degrade over time afer all the flexing - sounds feasible.

 

Any other suggestions from anyone?

 

I don't know how KISSY works. Is there a controller? If so, where is it?

 

What I could really do with is a decent workshop manual but I can't seem to find one. I bought the Haynes online offering but that's only marginally good for run-of-the-mill servicing. Any suggestions for a decent manual would be appreciated (I don't mind buying - doesn't have to be free!).

 

Cheers.

 

 

No workshop manual will solve an issue like this. I suggest you seek a reputable local independent VW dealer and get them to scan it for faults. 

I did try to do that - I went to a Skoda main dealer. The whole experience was not pleasant.

 

They scanned error messages, found some and cleared them and gave the car back claiming it's all fixed.

 

I guess it depends on what you mean by "reputable"!

 

Did you fond a solution? I have same problem.
