my guess then is its a faulty part

was it a brand new mechanism? genuine VAG part?

Never found out was in a rush when it arrived and needed heating so just fitted the complete replacement unit been working fine ever since so not messed with it, still have the old one in my garage

Have a look at this thread I shared the video I followed in it https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/help-%E2%80%93-removing-rear-door-lock-central-locking-actuator.323476/

Both my rear locks done the same, fixed mine by drilling a small hole in the lock and injecting some lubricant I'll see if I can find the video I used

Managed to find fan and controller for £54 non OEM but 2 year warranty so figured worth a punt. Will trial and error it when it comes and if one of the original parts still works I'll probably stick it on eBay or classifieds here recoup some of the cost. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the reply! Stupid question maybe but we're is the module connector I'm supposed to check? I've got a multimeter so should be able to do it, I searched "blower" in your build thread and no results

Wasn't going to bother because the car isn't clean....

Just fitted one oft he cheapo ebay rear wiper arms. Nice little mod for £4! my rear washer wasn't working either but followed the advice and cleaned the nozzle with a pin whilst I had it out, also gave it a little soak in some hot soapy water which brought a load of crap out and now it's...
