When you say 'simple fix,' are we talking about replacing the whole door actuator, or was it something more straightforward, like just cleaning a connection or replacing the door switch? Was it accessible without removing the whole car door panel?

Nah, nothing major like replacing the entire door actuator. A visit to the workshop, and they found a loose connection in the door handle wiring. They fixed it quickly. It's worth having it checked out.

Okay, I appreciate the input. A mechanic took a look, and you were spot on. It was indeed a faulty plug connection related to the door handle. The whole thing cost me 95€ including diagnostics. Thanks for the heads-up!

Door handle issues, eh? Sounds familiar. I had a similar problem with my AMG GT... keyless entry failed. The door handle felt dead. Did you check the door switch? Could be a simple fix. Was it the same for all doors or only one?
