ObjectiveAway Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 11 hours ago, Sarahs Lupo said: Right. ordered this. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/112352826186 fingers crossed 👍 This set, shown in picture, is for lupo. You can also see manuals for this on https://workshop-manuals.com/volkswagen/polo-mk3/body/general_body_repairs_exterior/front_door_central_locking/doors_front/removing_and_installing_lock_cylinder_with_inner_profile_key/ I just use the top part which holds spring in place (the one which he removed at 0:45 in video) to reassemble the lock. Just turn the spring in place with those little extensions and push it down. But be very careful by holding the spring down, I laughted about importance of VAG OEM T10009 tool until I nearly got the spring in my eye.

Sarahs Lupo Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 just incase anyone uses that ebay link. i checked the pieces before reassembly and as you can see , the new aftermarket piece is shorter - not sure i wanted that - so rebuilt with the new spring - but didnt do me any good. lock is still the same so back to the drawing board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Not the right one for a Lupo then. Hmm. From memory, i think Lupo locks are the same as polo, golf, bora, passat of that age. No idea what that shorter one is for. Interesting. Raise a case on ebay, saying not as described... they'll have to pay the return postage. They probably tell you to simply bin it. How annoying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
