BMW 328i Door Lock Cylinder

The BMW 328i Door Lock Cylinder allows drivers to lock or gain access to the cabin quickly with the metal ignition key by inserting it in the door of the vehicle and turning the key to use the latch. This simple operation controls the much wider locking mechanism hidden inside. Mounted in the front door sheet metal is this small barrel, which has tumblers matched to the factory key, and only the correct cut rotates the core and moves the lock rod. Earlier BMW 328i models applied a Door Lock Cylinder on both front doors, but later models have a single driver side barrel or none at all due to the rise of remote access. Thus, the remaining Door Lock Cylinder is the final mechanical backup in case of failure of the electronic access system. Constant twisting and exposure to weather may grind down the internal tumblers, making the key lock stick and refuse to turn or start to require extra force to open. The worn Door Lock Cylinder can be replaced to regain smooth locking and prevent key breakage, keeping every BMW 328i ready for effortless, reliable entry. A brand new Door Lock Cylinder that has been manufactured to BMW specifications slots in without issue, allowing any 328i owner to keep the factory key profile.

If you are looking for OEM BMW 328i Door Lock Cylinder, we highly recommend to shop with us. Not only do we offer budget friendly prices, but we also provide fast delivery. In addition, we have a hassle-free return policy on all genuine BMW 328i Door Lock Cylinder that come backed by the manufacturer's warranty.
