   Hi all, I'm a proud new owner of a 2001 1.1i Saxo! I just got it 2 days ago. Everything works fine and all but there is something I just found out. The passenger door can't get unlocked from the inside (by the lock pin). To unlock the door I need to get out and unlock the door by the keys. The lock pin just won't pop up. The door locks and unlocks fine if you have just unlocked it by the key, but after taking the car for a spin with the door locked, it won't unlock from the inside. I have noticed that some door moulding pins are broken, making the door card a bit "shaky". It's not evident but if you close the door by the handle from the inside, you feel that the card is a bit loose.
   
   Also I don't have central locking.
   
   Any suggestions?
   
   Thanks =)

   Best thing to do take the door card off and see if the pin is attached to the locking mechanism. Also the 1.1s dont have central locking.

   Ok I'll give it a try. The pin is definitely attached (somewhat) is it works when it was just unlocked by the key.... it stops working when it is locked after taking the car for a spin... I'll remove the door cards and try to see what's going on.
   
   Also, what type are the door moulding clips? I have found two types on eBay, one having sort of one "washer", the other has two... what fits the Saxo Mk2 door cards?
