I have the same problem with my truck. What happens is the bottom door latch gets rusty and worn out and doesn't like to release. There are three torx bit screws on the bottom of the latch. Replace it and you should be good to go!

How much would a dealer charge to fix a conventional door lock on a 2000 328i while it still works on remote?

im not sure i understand your question. but it the door latch assembly will not work correctly with the door handles then either the cables are bad or the latch is bad, it depends very much on your situation, if a cable is bad then $200 bucks perhaps, if the latch assembly is bad then $800 dollars perhaps, since you didnt leave a lot of info on what is happening with the latch i cant help you that much. good luck.


How do you get the trunk to close on a 1992 Lincoln Town Car?

Strutmasters sells an aftermarket trunk latch that will install in place of the old pull down motor/latch assembly. it's cheap and inexpensive to do. I just ordered one for my 1992 Lincoln Town Car. http://www.strutmasters.com/catalog.php?cat=2 im sorry to say this but it sounds like the pull down moter went out. i have had a few people "slam" my trunk on my mark 7 and cause the same damage. "it closes & locks but dont sit all the way down." if that is the situation that you have, it's the part on the body of the car. it has a plug ( elect. ) they were made of plastic so get a "new" part. it is also best not to use a junkyard part, simply because you cant tell if it has been "slam" damadged! with a little patiance its not too hard to replace. it took me a few hrs to change mine out. This is not an answer so much as a question: Can the latch be replaced with a non-moveable, fixed one from say a 92 Marquis or Crown Victoria? I simply removed the latch and motor assembly from the trunk, took the latch and motor assembly apart, set the worm screw so the latch was in the seated position, put the motor and latch assembly back together, reinstalled the motor and latch assembly in the trunk leaving the motor unplugged, and then isolated the electrical connection with a small plastic bag and tape and tucked it in under the carpet.

Why cant my passenger door close properly?

If the door feels like it is "hitting" on something, it is probably either worn hinge pings or the latch located on the body of the car (and not the door itself) is out of adjustment. If it closes but doesn't latch, it is either a faulty handle, latch, or latch rod/cable. All of these parts should be available at your local auto parts store.
