Mass Effect 3 game breaking bug

I am currently playing through the mass effect 3 DLC for The Citadel, and have encountered a bug that is preventing me doing anything further in the game.

After being ambushed in the sushi bar, and fighting my way through the ambushers, I have got to Cision Motors. When I attempt to open the door which has two guards shooting on the other side. I T Pose and the door does not open. I have tried reloading numerous times, using powers, and various other methods including going back to an older save. However no matter what I do Shepherd T Poses at this door, and it doesn't open.

Considering how frustrating the battles before are coupled with this bug right after, this has pretty much ruined this game for me right now.

    Try to repair the game.

    Thank you, but after leaving the game for a little while I restarted the mission, and when I got to those doors they opened.

    Still a massive annoyance, but at least I am passed it now.

    Good to hear you're through.

    It's not a bug I've encountered before to be honest.

    Do you have the Zaed Shore Leave Mod installed? I had the same issue. I deleted the Zaed mod and now the issue is resolved. It seems the problem ocurred when Zaed showed up before the door was opened. The squadmate (Liara or other love interest, or Vega otherwise) is supposed to be behind the door. Zaed showing up before the door opened seems to have caused the issue.
