Audi A3 8P lock replacement

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Door lock

With a flat screwdriver or a small plastic lever, detach the small plastic around the lock buttons. Unscrew the now uncovered screw with a t20 torx wrench. Then unscrew the screw under the handle again with torx t20. Now, again with a slotted tool (flat screwdriver, lever and whatever you prefer) remove the door panel. Disconnect the connector. Now unscrew the screws on the door that secure the lock, as shown in the video. Also unplug the cable connected to it and it will come out. Mount the new lock obviously proceeding backwards and making sure it is positioned like the original.

How to remove the front shock absorber on a Peugeot 406? The first step is to lift the bonnet and secure it with the prop rod. Use a socket wrench to unscrew the shock absorber mounting bolts (engine bay), lift the car on a column lift and remove the front wheel. Unscrew the shock absorber mounting bolts at the wheel hub (detach the brake line clips with a screwdriver). Unscrew the bolts on the side, then remove the shock absorber from its housing (place a support under the bar). Compare the old part with the new one and prepare for installation. Fit the new shock absorber to the car, working in reverse order.
