Lock set swap 200TDI

(1/2) > >>

strangerover:
the latest disco I have has 5 different keys !

my old one has one key for all...

how do I swap the ignition barrel I can not get the mechanism that accepts the key to remove...

help please !

also tips on door lock and petrol cap lock removal welcomed !

thanks

Matt_H:
golly gosh, now let's see I was stripping the entire vehicle so probably was a bit easier!  With the steering shroud off you need to take off the wiring connector off the end.  Then there is I think a cradle which holds the barrel in place, should be 2/3/4 (delete as appropriate) 8 or 10 mm head bolts that holt it in - once thats off the whole thing should drop out.

I do hope I haven't just made that whole thing up from some weird dream!

the "carrier" seems to be held in place with sheer bolts, so i can not undo them,

Most other cars there is a knack to removing the key assembley....

I too am breaking my old one !

Matt_H:
mine came out no bother - I may have used a long bar but bring in the torque gradually so as nto to stap the bolts and to get over any thread lock etc and it should be fine.

the sheer bolts are already sheared ! [!Expletive Deleted!]
