Mine just failed on my 2011 550i. Ugh. I’m wondering what causes them to fail…I’m gonna order the replacement but see if I can pull the old one apart Thank you for the video, appreciate your hard work.
@@JohnsonMotorsports one thing I did notice so far is that it makes my comfort access wig out. I can’t leave my keys in the car or in the morning the computer will have shut itself down for excessive draw And what it is, is that because the actuator is failed and can’t unlock the comfort access just keeps trying over and over again it’s weird AF
I'm like you on getting around to the door actuator on the E53 X5...delayed 🤣 It's good to see that it isn't the hardest repair to complete on the 535i. Great work 👍🏽💯
amazing video, thanks so much help me solve my issue.. I have another question my 2012 f10 535i, right side headlight sometimes is working sometimes i not, sometimes it shows code that its malfunction but its actually working.. where might be a problem ?
Thank you for the vid, picked up some info that I did not know on this little project. How did you get your inner lights to be purple? Its an F10 right?
I did this on the driver door sometime last year…now my comfort access unlock pad on the outside of that door has stopped working, so now I get to try to tackle that.
Hi I’m have problem with my 2011 f10 passenger door will not lock. I have soft close and comfort access. Was looking on Amazon they have the actuator by it self and Door lock actuator soft close do I just need the actuator only or need one with soft close. Thanks
Is the front passenger lock the same as the rear? I have a similar issue with both front and rear passenger side on my 2013 F10 with part#: Front: 51217202146 & Rear: 51227202148. But when received, they are the same with different part numbers. Please confirm. Thanks
No, that will just turn off the soft close sore functionality. You would have to replace the actuator to eliminate the noise and still have the feature.
Quite a struggle with the rod, plus you should really make sure that the butyl rope is properly glued back (hairdryer, heat gun...), otherwise you risk water ingress!
I bought my screen from RVG Performance. You can DM them on IG. I believe the brand is Kantor. I try to get to a review video. I did a small review on the screen on one of my Mods videos.
Have you tried opening the rear door from inside the car? I’m certain it won’t open. From what I see at 9:41 you did not connect the rear door handle bowden cable correctly.
Please, could you expand on that that lock bar? What's the problem? I have comfort access and will need to replace the front passenger side. Need the part number on that for a 2013 F10.
Thanks for the video, I needed the refresher doing my drivers side. did the passenger door about 3 years ago and today it went so much smoother
Glad it helped

Go ahead and knock it out!
@@JohnsonMotorsports I have no excuse now…thanks 😉
Great video, just done mine 30 mins 👍🏽. Thanks for the help
Awesome! Glad it helped!

Thank you for the vid, picked up some info that I did not know on this little project. How did you get your inner lights to be purple? Its an F10 right?
Yes, my car is an f10. I have done a full ambient light install
@JohnsonMotorsports do you have a vid for that project?
Very similar to the 2014 BMW 528i. Thanks for the video. Project complete.
Glad it helped.
Love your work I would have like to see the job from start to finish
Great video brother. Any chance you’ve got the video without the music?
Lol, no sir.
@@JohnsonMotorsports I followed your steps and it worked. Thank you for the video brother.
@@GTP375 Glad it helped!
Thanks man, I’ll try this weekend
excellent video! now just need to source the part thanks again
Welcome!

Brave man putting everything back together without testing. Why did the door panel accent have to come off?
Yeah. If I recall correctly, you have to remove the accent panel to remove a bolt that holds the door panel on.
I did this on the driver door sometime last year…now my comfort access unlock pad on the outside of that door has stopped working, so now I get to try to tackle that.
Yeah, you can definitely do this.
Hi I’m have problem with my 2011 f10 passenger door will not lock. I have soft close and comfort access. Was looking on Amazon they have the actuator by it self and Door lock actuator soft close do I just need the actuator only or need one with soft close. Thanks
You will need the actuator with soft close if you want to retain this function.
Is the front passenger lock the same as the rear? I have a similar issue with both front and rear passenger side on my 2013 F10 with part#: Front: 51217202146 & Rear: 51227202148. But when received, they are the same with different part numbers. Please confirm.
Thanks
If the car doesn't have soft close, can you use soft close actuators to gain that feature?
You will have to wire the car for that feature.

Nice. My driver's side will only lock and unlock with the key. So I'm assuming this should fix it.
@@matthewduran1374 Yeah, this should do the trick.
Good video, really could have done without the background music 😂
My driver side soft closing door is making a grinding noise, have u heard about just replacing the soft closing door fuse to eliminate the noise?
No, that will just turn off the soft close sore functionality. You would have to replace the actuator to eliminate the noise and still have the feature.
How did you open the door panel? I have to do the same job for the diver side.
Watch the video I just dropped on the ambient lighting. I go through removing the door panel.
Quite a struggle with the rod, plus you should really make sure that the butyl rope is properly glued back (hairdryer, heat gun...), otherwise you risk water ingress!
Thanks for the info
Seems like you only replace the door lock, so the soft close mechanism is independent from the door lock actuator?
I don’t have soft close doors. I believe the components would be separate.
How did you get the door panel off?
Is It harder to change when you have soft close ?
Not really, you just have to remove 3 nuts to pull the attached soft close motor as well.
hey, what screen do you have on your bmw? you should do a review video and how to buy it
I bought my screen from RVG Performance. You can DM them on IG. I believe the brand is Kantor. I try to get to a review video. I did a small review on the screen on one of my Mods videos.
Great work bro 💯
Amazon dont have part anymore. Anywhere else that sells it?
Have you tried opening the rear door from inside the car? I’m certain it won’t open. From what I see at 9:41 you did not connect the rear door handle bowden cable correctly.
Yeah, the door opens fine. That was almost year ago when I replaced that door actuator and I have since upgraded to soft close doors.
I replace the outside door handle on my driver side door and I can’t not find the cables for the light and confor access help please
Sorry I missed this. Did you find the cables?
Do you have comfort access and alarm?
Yes to both.
Hope its the same way for G30.
Should be, but I’m not sure.
grand where did u buy ur rims? can you slide the link? i’m looking to buy new rims i want 20inch rims for my F10
Actually, I bought mine from a local member for $150. Had to have some repairs done and refinish them.
Any update on the electronic cut-out exhaust ?
Lol. Yeah, it’s great. I need to get the video out, but I’ve been trying to wait for a camera man to get sound clips.
Not so easy when you have to the drivers door with comfort access. Got to look out for the lock bar....
Yeah, I haven’t had to do this on the front doors. Although, I do have comfort access.
@@JohnsonMotorsports sorry I ment soft closed doors.
Please, could you expand on that that lock bar? What's the problem? I have comfort access and will need to replace the front passenger side. Need the part number on that for a 2013 F10.
@@LuisManuel30096 The lock bar is only on the driver's door. It connects the key cylinder to the Actuator.
@@passat24666 Thank you!
