Complete guide to stripping your Discovery 3 door and replacing the door latch mechanism.

[@skunkIH]

Thanks for producing this, it was brilliant and easy to follow. I did the job today after watching the video a few times to get it in my head, as don't always get a good signal where I do my jobs on the D3. It was so easy, even unclipping the window, which I was worried about, went without issue. I had a 2nd hand main unit from Gentleman of Salvage, and it was spot on (and cheap too). My only issue is the manual unlock internal part, which is plastic, that has worn from where the main unit was seized and trying to unlock the car. That's next on my list, lol.

Could you put a small zip tie over the end of the spring, so it doesn't jump out of its "groove" again?

[@LRLiveUK]

Worried it might get snagged as there isn't much room.

If you ever lose that little spring, or the similar one that often snaps in series 3 or military defender latches, a new one can be made from the lower spring part of a correct sized safety pin. 😉 Necessity is the mother of all invention!

What was the original problem please? My drivers door often slips back locked (the inner lock tab seems not to open fully) pia when you leave keys in!

[@LRLiveUK]

The mechnism was't strong enough to open the locking tab fully. If yours is the same it could be slowly closing again.
