    Hi i picked up a car yesterday and have come across a few problem's I'm going to try sort them out my self only found them after i bought the car. The car is a 00 seat Cordoba 1.9 diesel

    One of the back doors will not open from the inside or the out side it has central locking and the button gos up and down fine and the leaver in side the car is working i pulled back the lining a bit inside the car and can see the handle pulling the cable so the cable is not broken i just cant seem to get the door to open by fiddling around with the locking mechanism in side the door now i cant see what I'm doing so just poking about.

    Also the windscreen wipers only work at full speed and the back one wont go of i did not notice when looking at the car as the wiper was of the car arm and all but i have the arm.

    Also the radio comes on after a while when you get out of the car and have the engine of this is going to drain the battery reading up on it seems to be a common fault. So i am just unplugging the radio for now on till i sort something it has the controls for the air con so it is not that easy to just put in an other radio.

    Any one got any ideas on any of the fix's ?

    Thanks

    I had the radio problem on an ibiza and sorted it with by installing a relay behind the fuse panel on the radio\air blower circuit (which you will have to cut) that was controlled by the ignition.

    I have sprayed switch cleaner in to the radio just after i posted this and the radio has not come back on when i leave the car :D so i hope that has done the job.

    I have also goten the door panel off but i still cant get the door to open i dont no what to do there does not seem to be any way to release the locking mechanism i no i will probably have to change the locking mechanism but i cant do that on less i can get the door to open :(
