## Description

RegulatorFix BMW 3 Series E46 Door Lock Repair Kit - Front (left or right)

Review: Exactly what you need to fix spinning door lock - I have been waiting to review this item. Car lock broke and my husband called me in a panic thinking we would have to bring to dealer and pay for new clicker and have door lock fixed etc. I found out about the cylinder replacement through YouTube and proceeded to purchase this item. The parts arrived as expected. No instructions though so back to YouTube for DIY videos. The parts are so far working great it's just the process of replacing the parts that is difficult. I will definitely buy from this seller in the future. I just hope I won't need to be a repeat customer!
Review: Inexpensive fix, but probably not for the mechanically inept. - The components fit perfectly and appear to be made to a similar standard as oem. This is a cheap fix but be warned, if your not mechanically incline, get someone else to disassemble and reassemble as the process is arduous for even the skilled.

## Features

- Not available from OEM
- No need to change out entire lock

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works good-hope you’re mechanically inclined!
*by D***. on April 3, 2014*

This is a great little kit to fix a common problem with the E-46. Everything fit well except the spring. I ended up using my old spring. Theirs was too stiff. I have had 35 year experience restoring old sports cars and motorcycles and feel I am pretty good at it. What I thought would be an easy half hour fix took me 1 hour to finish. I had a lot of trouble winding the spring back and ended up using my old spring that was shorter. This kit comes with no directions but there are some good u-tube videos that really help, the first will tell you how to remove the lock from the car, just type in the words “remove e-46 door lock” the second will help you with taking the lock apart. Just type in “E46 E90 Door Lock Repair Kit DIY Tutorial” Also remember the door will not lock when it is open! I would have saved 10 minutes if I had remembered this. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of no directions, and a spring that is too long.
