Vehicle Application and Placement

The presented lock is dedicated for installation in the rear left door area, allowing for precise fitting to the body structure and factory mounting points. This ensures the element cooperates with the original handle mechanism, rods, and the central locking control system, without the need for modifications or adaptations.

The vehicle placement has been chosen to maintain full compatibility with factory BMW solutions, which translates to correct operation of the locking function, opening from the inside and outside, and cooperation with the vehicle's safety system.

Technical Characteristics and Compatibility

The door lock is designed as an element from the Other category, but structurally it is a precise component of the door locking system. It is responsible for:

• mechanical locking of the door leaf in the body pillar,
• transferring motion from the external and internal handle to the lock mechanism,
• cooperation with the central locking actuator (if present in the specific vehicle configuration),
• maintaining the correct position of the door relative to the body when closed.

Thanks to the use of original BMW design, the lock has appropriate mounting points, latch geometry, and connection sockets, which facilitates installation and reduces the risk of play or improper door closing.

Benefits of Using an Original BMW Lock

Choosing an element like the BMW E60 E61 E87 F10 Rear Left Door Lock allows for consistency with the vehicle's factory design. Key benefits include:

• Factory Fitment – compatibility with the door and pillar structure, without the need for sheet metal or mounting modifications.
• Proper Electronic Cooperation – correct operation of the central locking system and comfort systems, if present in the specific car version.
• Stable Mechanism Operation – appropriately selected gear ratios and moving part geometry ensure smooth opening and closing.
• User Safety – a properly functioning lock reduces the risk of the door opening unintentionally while driving.

Condition and Service Application

The offered lock comes from the BMW group and is primarily intended as a service part for door locking system repairs. It is suitable for situations where there are problems with closing, locking, internal locking, or cooperation with the central locking system. Using an original component allows for restoring the factory operating parameters of the mechanism without the need for aftermarket replacements with uncertain fit.

Lock Selection and Technical Support

To correctly select the lock for a specific BMW model, it is advisable to pay attention to the manufacturer's markings and reference numbers visible in the specifications section. This facilitates verification of compatibility with the specific body version and vehicle year, and also minimizes the risk of purchasing an ill-fitting part. If in doubt, it is a good idea to compare the lock's construction with the element currently installed in the car.
