The bmw 3 series e46 service manual from bentley publishers is considered a reference work for repair procedures and a must have for any diy er.
Since i did the feel like ordering a new one at that moment i used the key to lock and unlock my doors until the cast parts inside broke like they tend to do.
So i decided to try to remove the door lock tumbler assembly per the bentley.
This also works for the x5 and the x3.
I took the door lock assembly out today to replace a broken piece and clean out the insides.
Final video showing you how to repair your bmw e46 door lock.
The only difference between the two locks is this piece is for the e46 3 series and this piece slightly smaller for the x5 and the x3.
So like most old e46s my door lock actuator went out.
