Malcolm, add me to the long list of folks having the door lock problem. If you could send me the info on repairing it I would greatly appreciate it. It is the passenger door on my 2004 W211. My email is efmail.com.

Thanks very much!

I have sent the details and welcome to the forum

Hi am surprised most people would want to try and fit there own door lock motors, including rivets etc, for two hours max plus parts.

Hello - my first post here as I have been searching for information on the "bouncing" door lock and am relieved to have found this site. I have had this occur on both the front passenger side and now front driver side. The passenger side was repaired last year by someone who was doing some other work on the doors for me, but I have been quoted £450 by my local mercedes "independent" garage to replace the "remote locking" unit in the door(which i assume is the motor?) I have also seen reference to the relay and the solenoid so not sure if they are the same thing.

I have sent the details and welcome to the forum

Hello Malcolm,

Could I also trouble you for the instructions on how to fix this for the front driver door please? My car is a Mercedes C200K 2003 estate. My email address is apo_bateman@yahoo.com. Thank you.

Do you normally need to replace the complete Lock / Solenoid or can these be stripped down and repaired ??.

Many thanks,

Lock won't come out of door

Hi Gents, I got instructions on replacing my lock from someone on this forum (door lining, door lock AR72.10-P-4011T, and door handle AR72.10-P-2400T). I just can't seem to get the lock out. And the door handle won't come off (it references remove door lock cylinder AR72.10-P-4015T before you can even begin and I don't have that one. There is no screw under the rubber backing as some have mentioned. Can anyone give me any advice?

Hi,

Could I too have the instructions please for the front passanger door of my E320 W211.

andyg0141@hotmail.com

Many thanks in advance, Andy

When the instruction says remove cylinder lock you pull off the rubber door seal and there's a hole through which you'll find a torx screw. Undo this and the cylinder can be removed.

Recieved with thanks Malcom! Also, wheres best to purchase the lock? Delaer/GSF/Euro/any places on line or forum members that do Merc parts? Finally, how much are they roughly and any idea of a part number so I dont end up with the wrong part? Its a 2003 E320 CDI W211 and its the front near side lock.

Many thanks, Andy

I remember panicking on my drive on a wet Sunday afternoon because I couldn't get the cylinder out - the forum saved me (again).
