Calling all people with Aus delivered Gtis

Did they all have central locking? is it the vacuum operated type?

Cheers.

I owned one which has central locking, yes it is vacuum type. Not sure if it was standard or optional

[hamza]

Pretty sure they were vacuum operated from stock. My is vacuum so was my ibiza and so I my brothers..

[GTi Bhoy]

Yes Standard
Yes Vacuum operated.

thanks guys. I've misplaced the long connecting rod from the vacuum actuator and the lock itself, if I can't find it good to know I'll be able to pinch one off an Aussie car.

My car is a euro import.

If I were you I'd replace it with aftermarket central locking kit.
Previous owner of my current Mk2 did that, much better than the 20+ old vacuum operated CL.

It's vacuum and pump to be picky.

I'm surprised ours is still reliable being 21 years old.

Mine still works too!

[ausgolfer]

yeah mine works great it's just not connected to the tailgate lock

[Stiggy_21]
