A used door lock mechanism that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The BMW M4 in its first generation ran as the F82 (coupe) and F83 (convertible) from 2014 to 2020, so parts from within that generation are your best starting point for a match. You must confirm the correct side — NS (nearside, passenger left) or OS (offside, driver right) — as these are not interchangeable. Confirm the details with the breaker against your registration to be sure.
The BMW M4 moved to the G82 generation (coupe) and G83 (convertible) from 2021 onwards, making the G82 and F82 entirely different generations with different door structures, so a G82 lock mechanism will not fit an F82. Always source a lock mechanism from the same generation as your car. Confirm the part reference with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
The BMW M4 is a single high-performance trim in itself, but across the F82 generation there were variants such as Competition that did not change the door structure or lock mechanism fitment. Trim level does not affect which lock mechanism you need — what matters is the generation and the side (NS or OS). Confirm the correct side and generation with the breaker against your registration.
Yes, it matters significantly — door lock mechanisms are side-specific, and a nearside (NS, passenger/left) unit will not fit the offside (OS, driver/right) door and vice versa. When contacting a breaker, always state clearly whether you need the NS or OS mechanism. Confirm the side against your own vehicle before ordering.
Both the 2014 and 2017 BMW M4 fall within the F82 generation (2014–2020), so there is a reasonable chance of compatibility, but minor running changes can occur within a generation. State your exact registration to the breaker so they can check the specific part number matches before you buy.
The F82 M4 shares its basic body shell with the F82 4 Series coupe, and in many cases the door lock mechanism may be the same item, but you should not assume this without checking — there can be differences in door hardware depending on specification. Give the breaker both registrations and ask them to cross-reference the part numbers before committing to a purchase.
