How to repair the door lock of the Audi A3.

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

Today, in this video tutorial, we will see the steps that will allow us to repair the door lock of the Audi A3. First of all, we open the front door and start unscrewing the side screw of the door, located inside the hole; to do this, we use a torx key, as shown in the video. At this point, we remove the lock cylinder from the external handle; then we repair the lock or replace the cylinder if necessary (which requires replacing the key). All that's left is to reassemble everything, following the reverse procedure!
