Hi, I have recently bought a 99 T reg polo 1.4 CL.

The passenger side electric window has packed up.

Central locking doesn't work from the key, but will work if you are inside the car and push drivers side door pin down.

Gearbox has been hard to engage into 1st and reverse for a few weeks, and also there was a slight grinding in 3rd and fourth, and now today there was a loud thud from the gearbox, and now a loud grinding noise is heard in all gears apart from fourth, which seems to no longer exist. Does anyone have any idea how to fix the issue, and what it could be?

Also any ideas on the central locking fiasco.

Cheers
