WTB: driver's door lock mechanism

Recommended Posts

i was feeling a lot of resistance lately when unlocking my driver's door. then, yesterday i felt a click when turning it and when i pulled the key out, the locking mechanism that the key goes into broke off and it was clearly snapped at the end. does anyone have a replacement part? maybe some instructions on how to fix it would be handy too!

thanks,

dave

Yep, that one be broken. It just slides in from the outside, but there is a small screw on the inside that holds it all together with the push that opens the door. You will need to remove the door panel and it would be best if you remove the handle. This is done by removing one phillips head screw located along the edge of the door and a 10mm bolt that is inside the door panel. Here's fuzzy picture of the drivers side lock. A good locksmith should be able to rekey to match or there might be something here on the FAQ on how to do it. I could just send you the complete handles for a few more $$..

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
