This lock mechanism is designed for the right front door of Volkswagen Golf 5 and Volkswagen Touran models. Its placement in the front-right area allows for a direct replacement of a worn or damaged component without requiring modifications to the door panel or wiring. By preserving the original geometry and mounting points, the lock seamlessly integrates with the factory door handle, rods, and central locking actuator.

Mechanism Construction and Function

The lock mechanism performs several key functions within the vehicle's door:

• Mechanical locking and unlocking of the door leaf,
• Integration with the central locking system and remote control,
• Maintaining the door's stable position while driving,
• Transmitting the door's closed status signal to the vehicle's electrical system.

Its internal design ensures consistent latch operation, and its precise fitment for its specific location minimizes the risk of leaks or improper closing. Using an original component contributes to the seamless operation of the central locking system and enhances everyday driving comfort.
