Description
Product Overview
This comprehensive lock set is designed specifically for the Citroën C5 models produced between 2001 and 2007. It includes the driver door lock, fuel filler cap lock, ignition cylinder, and two matching keys. This kit is essential for restoring secure access and ignition functionality in vehicles experiencing wear or lock failure.
Function and Importance
Locks on a vehicle are critical for safety and security. The driver door lock ensures controlled entry, while the fuel cap lock prevents unauthorized fuel access. The ignition lock cylinder is a fundamental component allowing engine start and vehicle operation. Over time, these parts may wear due to frequent use, leading to difficulty in turning keys, jamming, or lock failure, often caused by internal wear or damaged key files.
Replacement and Compatibility
Installation involves removing the old locks and ignition cylinder, which typically requires disassembling the door panel and dashboard components. Matching the product codes 4162Z0 and 4162CE guarantees compatibility with the specified Citroën C5 models. The included keys are programmed mechanically, not electronically, to fit the new locks, making it an ideal replacement kit for DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike.
