It's good practice to have the vehicle scanned with VCDS it's the best method to check the fault in question.
Below is the link to members who could possibly help you in obtaining a scan

hi thanks for your help ,
is the module just for door looking or does it do the electric window aswell?
ive seen a post where a guy said from the stealers it costs £75 but ive had a quote of £236 just for the module ?
i went to a link from a post made in this forum , ive got to find it again so i can ask where he got his module from
doylebros:
The door module works the door lock - the door controller works both the windows and the door.
Best practice is to have it scanned to confirm which item is faulty!
Cheapest place I've found for a New Module is this EBay seller

hi thanks for your help, im really confused about this , does the drivers door lock activate the other locks ? some times now none of them work then if I push open then close they work , they seem to work fine on the key , could you explain in noob terms , sorry to be a pain , this is my 1st week of owning a gti and what a nightmare :(
