Noisey central locking

Recommended Posts

Hi there my 02 Boxster S has just started making a sort of grating noise when I lock the car with the central locking. Noise is coming from the drivers side door lock. No noise when I unlock the car. Anyone got an idea what could be causing this?  I have tried Tried WD 40 into door key slot and into the lock aperture in the door.

Try WD40 from the top by bypassing the window seal on the outside.

Update, thank you guys for your replies. The WD40 that I sprayed into the lock aperture of the door appears to have done the trick, after leaving overnight it worked okay without the noise, so sprayed it again this morning then went out for a good run in the sunshine, cold but good.
