NO. This product is the CENTRAL LOCKING ACTUATOR MOTOR ONLY — the small electric motor that drives the lock mechanism. It does NOT include the lock body, mechanical linkage, cables, outer handle connector or housing shell. If your entire door lock has failed mechanically (not just electrically), you likely need a complete lock assembly with a different OE number. Confirm by testing whether the motor receives power but fails to move (actuator fault) versus no electrical signal reaching the motor (wiring/switch fault).

Three factors determine the correct OE: (1) DOOR POSITION — FL/FR/RL/RR are NOT interchangeable; (2) VEHICLE MODEL & YEAR — e.g., Passat B5 uses 3B1-prefix while Fabia uses 6X1-prefix; (3) OE SUFFIX VARIANT — suffixes like A/C/CA/AD/AP indicate revision levels, connector types or market-specific configurations. Always provide your full 17-digit VIN so we can cross-reference the exact factory-installed OE. Do not order based on partial OE matching alone.

The VAG PQ34/PQ46 platform was used across multiple generations and markets simultaneously. For example, 'Jetta 1984-1991' covers both MK2 and early MK3 variants sold in different regions, and 'Fox/Lupo IN MEXICO 1998-2005' reflects extended production for the Latin American market after European discontinuation. These wide ranges reflect real-world parts compatibility, not data errors. However, mid-cycle facelifts within these ranges may change actuator specifications — always verify via VIN.

Within the same platform generation (PQ34 or PQ46), many actuators share identical internal mechanisms despite different OE prefixes (3B1=VW Passat, 6X1=Skoda Fabia, 5Z1=Skoda Octavia). However, connector pinouts, mounting bracket shapes and rod lengths can differ between brands even when the motor core is identical. We test all units to PLATFORM-level specifications, but physical fitment must be confirmed per vehicle. Provide VIN for guaranteed match.
