Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented door lock is designed for installation in the front – right side of the body, responsible for mechanical locking and interaction with the central locking and comfort system. As a component dedicated to the specific generation of the Range Rover Evoque L538, it maintains the correct mounting geometry, rod positioning, and connector sockets, which facilitates installation as a direct replacement for the factory unit.

Construction and technical features

The mechanism combines a mechanical part responsible for locking with an electric drive that controls the lock's operation. The applied design enables:

• consistent operation with the factory central locking and body electronics,
• stable load transfer during repeated door opening and closing,
• proper cooperation with both the exterior and interior door handles.

The housing in gold color facilitates component identification during service work and distinguishes it from other variants installed in the vehicle.

Compatibility with Range Rover Evoque L538

As a Land Rover brand part, the lock has been developed to maintain factory door operating parameters, including closing force, latch tongue position, and cooperation with seals and hinges. As a result, after replacement:

• the door maintains the correct alignment with the body,
• the locking mechanism operates with predictable resistance,
• the vehicle's comfort and security system can function according to the manufacturer's specifications.

The placement marked as front – right allows for clear assignment of the component to the appropriate side of the vehicle, which minimizes the risk of error when selecting parts.

Condition and benefits of using a pre-owned component

The subassembly is offered as used, which provides a reasonable compromise between repair costs and maintaining the original build quality characteristic of the Land Rover brand. Choosing this solution allows you to:

• maintain consistency with the vehicle's factory locking system,
• reduce service costs compared to a new lock,
• preserve the high operating standard of the door mechanism.

Additionally, the presence of assigned interchangeable numbers facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific Range Rover Evoque L538 configuration without the need for installation modifications.
