Intermittent door unlocking problem on one door
Has anyone had an intermittent unlocking door problem?! In the past week a few times when I've unlocked the car using the remote, all doors have unlocked apart from the driver's which doesn't make the usual click. If I lock and unlock a few times it will eventually work.
Today I tested more and got into the car when the other doors were unlocked and couldn't open the driver's door from the inside either.
Would this likely be a door actuator problem do you think? I've not got any fault codes coming up on the scanner.
Any thoughts from anyone about this would be massively appreciated before my wife becomes a prisoner in her own car!

I had this same issue happening to me like a year ago.
I was even thinking of doing the door actuator replacement after experiencing exactly the same thing.
Then I read somewhere that I should try using the physical key, stick it into the door and locking/unlocking the door a few time.
I did that like 10 times and the problem went away.
Haven't had it reoccur since so I guess that worked for me.
