Power-Latching sliding-door problems

[Mooeee]

Is there an up to date price for the Rear tailgate power latch kit?, and what the lead time is.

Thanks

I’m trying to work out what actually triggers and/or controls the latching mechanism on the side door of a 2014 factory Kombi?

Symptoms/problem: opening and closing the door is fine, however, if I drive over a bump or a rough surface road, I hear the latching mechanism momentarily activate. Sometimes I see the door has been pushed out a bit, sometimes the interior lights even come on.

I’m suspecting a loose connection somewhere but don’t know where to start looking.

Not sure if this is related or coincidence but the folding mirrors have a similar issue, albeit less often.

Any pointers as to where to start my search for the cause would be most appreciated.

TIA.

Welcome to the forum @ukEvo

Do your doors have the soft close power latching?

Thank you.

The doors are not electric, it’s just the latching that is powered.

Sorry, not sure if it’s the powered latching or full electric door that makes them ‘soft close’.
