e30 Boot Lock Barrel

Recommended Posts

My wife presented me with the problem of the boot locking barrel jammed in the locked position.

Puffed some graphite lock powder stuff and tried using the key to pull it back out without breaking the key, but to no avail. (Before this the boot was the only way to central lock and unlock the car.) Tried thumping the barrel with a piece of firewood with the axe head, then tried key again and "Hey, Presto,Click."

Now she thinks I have the technical "nowse" to fix the central locking! I am throwing out the BMW tool-kit and replacing it with an "axe-kit. Now I need to know where do I aim the axe blade to fix the central locking problem?

Good effort!

To fix central locking, aim for the centre of each door and swing the axe as hard as you can :P
