Funny repair this was. Christian shows how he plans a typical car repair on one of our Land Rovers. No rocket science but still important.

make sure he puts that back on your car or it may fall apart LOL thanks for the video
I am really impressed with the locking feature of the LR – even with the windows down you can not open the doors. When are you coming to Utah? I want to be there to say hi.
The addictive quality of working on a Discovery. I have done this job on different doors on both LR3 and LR4 (with keyless entry) and yet I still watched your video from start to finish!
The lock is very similar with the Volvo door locks. If you have intermitent unlocking issue with the doors, replace the motor pair on the lock. All the best.
You guys are legends! Thank you! I shall be attempting this after I work out why my Freelander 2's turbo is no longer working. We've got to lower the Disco 3's rear passenger door tab manually every time we lock the car! I think the problem is annoying enough that I'll try to not wait (another) 2 years, emboldened as I am now with your process!
Sorry to say the Lexus IS200 also had double lock 25 years ago:(
If at any time you have the parts all in place and not broken, it's the actuator motors that will be weak resulting in failure to move the levers all the way.
The motors are two, small one and bigger one, written mabuchi or something. They are available on ebay.
So everyone when you do this work and not ready to replace the latch with a new one, order the motors and change them too so as to avoid disappointment after a short while, believe me I went through it.
Removing and replacing door panels can get very frustrating, besides accidentally breaking a clip or something plastic .
Excellent repair , including where to find information , and made it look so easy .
Many thanks Vera and Christian for your humorous video " in the freeze "
loving your new line of videos on the process. love you guys and was worried how you would keep this going. After all, I thought you might have to break things for repair vids! Always a treat to see you guys! ~ Roger
i've got to put all that stuff in from scratch, in a new door after a cyclist decided to ride into it while it was parked , this is going to be useful
Would you guys be buying a disco 5 in the future?
Christian – you are the personification of German order – but your channel is in English. It’s so entertaining and one can learn things too.
