Arm with my teng tools 1/4 inch ratchet 10mm socket and philips screwdriver 30 seconds later the door card off!! In to the lock my hand goes armed with large aerosol tin in white grease! Blasted the mechanism with a fair old amount and the inside of the barrell!! left for ten minutes or so! Goes for another attempt at turning door barrell with nothing happening! Blast!! So takes the small black inspection cover off the door next to barrel just in the door jam! There is a small allen bolt. Swiftly had this out in a flash!! Thus leaving access to pull door handle out about a half inch!! Crack large spring and barrel like small plastic clip falls inside door!! Me being quite a large fella And used to working on trucks rather than cars deciced to pull the door handle and the barrel clean out the door!! So losing light on friday night put it all back togethar again! But now have a dotty door handle that doesnt return and a door lock that is about to get the slide hammer treatment!! SO CAN ANYBODY PLEASE HELP?? AND THE MORE PICTURES THE BETTER!! THANKS!!

When you put the lock barrel back in the door you have to twist it 90` before fitting. I had the same sort of trouble on the W124 and I just cut the nobby but off the end with bolt cutters and it slotted straight in. Edited by Rich27, Sun Aug 22, 2010 7:05 pm.
