Vehicle Application and Placement

This means the mechanical design, mounting points, and geometry directly interface with the rear door on the appropriate side of the body, facilitating installation and eliminating the need for modifications.

By adhering to the original BMW specifications, the lock correctly interacts with the factory locking mechanism, linkages, and control wiring, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the central locking system, door locks, and passenger safety features.

Original Origin and Compatibility

The part comes from the BMW line, signifying compliance with the manufacturer's factory standards for design, durability, and installation. The door lock was designed as part of the E65/E66 body system, thus it maintains:

• appropriate mounting points to the door panel and frame,
• correct interaction with the latch and handle mechanism,
• compatibility with the factory lock control system.

Additionally, the part features an OEM part number and assigned interchangeable numbers, which simplifies verifying compatibility with specific vehicle equipment versions and allows for selecting a lock that matches the existing door configuration.

Functional Characteristics and Installation Benefits

As a component from the Locks and Latches category, the door lock is responsible for the mechanical and functional connection of the door leaf to the body, as well as for proper locking during driving and while parked. Utilizing the original BMW design allows for maintaining:

• stable door closure without excessive adjustment,
• consistent operation with the central locking system and deadlocks,
• correct interaction with sensors and control wiring (if present in the specific configuration).

The used nature of the part, indicated by the Condition parameter, offers a favorable balance between repair cost and retaining original manufacturing quality. In practice, this allows for restoring door functionality without investing in a new, significantly more expensive component.

Identification Parameters and Service Application

Identification data, such as SKU and OEM part number, along with assigned interchangeable numbers, are helpful in the part selection process. These enable precise verification of the lock's compatibility with specific BMW E65/E66 versions, minimizing the risk of purchasing an incorrect part and speeding up service work.
