Not mine. If the doors are locked, the handles still move through their full motion - they simply door not open the door. They "dry fire" as you put it.

We had 01 models I wonder when they changed that. Good to know before e70 however you are also rhd and not us market so I would be curious.

I was shocked that ours had the blocking version of the DLA.

Same part number as newer models usually if they revise something there will be a new number and supercede. Well good for you to have that. I would have family yank the handle before unlocking and I'd have to have them release the handle and re-trigger the unlock.
