drivers side lock barrel just spinnging!!!

Post by rick »

hi, well the problem i've got is the drivers side lock barrel is just spinning arround and sometimes comes out and i've found a lock repair kit and just want to know if anyone has tried it and if it works?

car spec - 1.4 8v, 3 dr, 2000 reg

link to repair kit - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-POLO-HATCH-DOO ... 2c526857b9

cheers

yes mate those are the parts you will need. I have done mine a few time back and most probably it is only the long part that is broken but then might as well change all parts. just make sure you keep the order and way of how the parts go in each other because I had to remove the other lock to follow on it

Don't get the kit from Ebay either, it's cheaper directly from your dealer. I think I paid about £12 for the kit.
