VW Volkswagen Touareg 7P Door Lock Barell Cylinder Driver Side O/S F107837168AQ

VW Volkswagen Touareg 7P Door Lock Barell Cylinder Driver Side O/S is an original locking mechanism component designed for installation on the right side of the vehicle. Thanks to its factory design, it ensures precise key operation and correct transmission of movement to the lock mechanism. It is a practical solution for repairs following mechanical damage or break-in attempts, where replacing the cylinder itself is necessary.

Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented lock cylinder is a component of the Locks and latches system in the Volkswagen Touareg 7P model, responsible for the mechanical operation of the driver's door from the outside. Mounted on the right side of the body, it works with the key, transmitting torque to the internal locking mechanism. This solution allows for maintaining full door locking and unlocking functionality even when the central locking system or remote control requires service.

Construction and technical fitment

The lock cylinder has been designed as an OEM component, which means its geometry, pin length, and the profile of the cooperating tumblers are adapted to the factory door lock of the Touareg 7P. Thanks to this:

• it fits the designated slot in the driver's door handle on the right side,
• it ensures the correct working position relative to the lock rods and levers,
• it maintains appropriate rigidity and resistance to typical operational loads.

Such fitment reduces the risk of play, mechanism jamming, or incomplete locking, which is particularly important in a heavy SUV like the Touareg.

Practical application and repair scenarios

The driver's side door lock cylinder on the right side is particularly useful in situations where:

• mechanical damage to the cylinder has occurred (e.g., after a break-in attempt or improper key use),
• the lock jams mechanically, despite a functional central locking system,
• it is necessary to replace the cylinder itself without interfering with the entire lock cassette.

Choosing an original element from the Locks and latches group allows for maintaining the structural integrity of the door and proper cooperation with other components of the locking system.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered cylinder comes from disassembly, which means it is a used part, but still intended for further use. Such components are often chosen for repairs of older vehicles, where a reasonable service cost is important while maintaining the original design. A lock cylinder from disassembly allows for restoring full door functionality without the need to purchase an entire new module.

Complementary elements and further expansion

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the cabin access security zone in your Volkswagen and need other elements from the same group, such as lock cassettes, latches, or handle mechanisms, check the available parts in the Volkswagen Locks and latches category.

Technical support for body repairs

In the case of post-accident repairs, when locks, handles, or door skin elements are also damaged, it is worth checking out practical tips regarding the selection of parts from disassembly and service procedures – you will find them in the article Bodywork and exterior – post-accident repairs using parts from disassembly.
