Purpose and technical function

The presented door lock is dedicated to installation in the rear right zone, which guarantees proper fitment with the door structure and the handle and linkage mechanism. The component is responsible for the mechanical locking of the door leaf, interaction with the central locking actuator, and proper door closing during vehicle operation.

By maintaining factory geometry and mounting points, the lock allows for installation without interfering with the door structure, which reduces the risk of play, rattling, or improper closing. This is particularly important in BMW vehicles, where the precision of body component fitment affects acoustic comfort and the overall impression of quality.

Construction and BMW fitment

As a BMW brand part, the lock has been designed to work with the factory locking and latching system. The design provides appropriate sockets for linkages, catches, and electrical connectors, which allows for full door functionality to be maintained after replacing the component.

The location on the vehicle in the rear right section of the body means that the lock geometry is adapted to the specific side and hinge axis. In practice, this translates into:

• correct guidance of the lock tongue relative to the body pillar,
• stable locking when closing the door with normal force,
• reduction of stress on the door and pillar sheet metal.

Condition, verification, and utility aspect

The component is in used condition, which in practice means it has been removed from a vehicle and verified for suitability for further use. This type of part allows for economical vehicle repair while maintaining the original BMW design, without the need to use replacements with uncertain parameters.

Choosing a used door lock is particularly beneficial in situations such as:

• mechanical damage after a collision or door dent,
• problems with locking or opening the rear passenger door,
• the need to restore full central locking functionality.

Benefits of using an original BMW lock

Using an original door lock latch in the BMW F40, F44, and G20 series provides a number of practical benefits:

• Factory fitment – maintaining original mounting points and door geometry.
• Consistency with vehicle electronics – correct interaction with the central locking and comfort systems.
• Stable mechanism operation – predictable locking and unlocking in daily use.

Thanks to this, the part works well both for standard repairs and for comprehensive rebuilding of the side body zone after damage.

Integration with other components and additional information
