Unless, they gave you the wrong van and then you broke the lock when you tried to get in, you broke it, drove home and now trying to pull a fast one? HahahahaGold star for @EdH
Where did you go for the recall?
Had my recall done today. When I got home and locked the van it sounds very different than before it was done. Has anyone else noticed this?
when I used to press the lock button on the key fob a second time it sounded like it deadlocked?.? Now it does nothing

Right it appears I may have been locking my van incorrectly from day one. I always assumed I was activating the deadlocks with the second press. It turns out I was probably deactivating them.
Just sat in my van and locked with the single lock. I was able to unlock it via the internal door handle. Sounds like it will be going back

Checked it twice now, safelock is definitely not working.
You may not have deadlocking...
This is rehash of something that came up in the Autolocking thread but I though it was important enough to bring up again for anyone who didn't see that. (Sorry if this in the wrong forum Mods, couldn't decide which it should be) An Australian member, @Ketan , had noticed that he didn't have...
Deadlocking
Good afternoon. I have a 2016 t6 trend line t28 panel van, can any body confirm if this deadlocks on the first lock? As I’ve read in another similar post that to disable this you click twice, you can definitely hear a 2nd lock after pressing twice but unsure if this disabling or enabling the...
The Bowden cable for the outer handle isn’t adjusted correctly, most likely over adjusted.. stopping the dead lock from moving into the correct position.
Needs redoing by the dealer.
Took my van in earlier in the week for the safety recall on the Bowden cables. On my return home and locking the van for the first time I immediately noticed it sounded very different from before on locking. I suspected that the deadlocks on the VW safe lock system weren’t kicking in. I asked advice on here and people seamed to agree and told me to check by locking myself inside the van with the deadlocks engaged. If I couldn’t open the doors they were working.
This I did and the internal door handles all opened the van.
Another trip back to the dealership this morning and they are now telling me things have changed on the t6.1.
would any t6.1 owners be able to try this for me on their vehicle to confirm?

Hi, I’ve just been out to test.
got in the van. 1 press of remote to lock.
I then can’t open any of the doors from the inside. I have had the Bowden cable recall done.
Hope that helps.
Thanks for that, can you confirm it’s a t6.1. The dealership say it has changed from the t6
