Hello,
I have issues with both my lock barrel and the actuator. I am planning to replace the barrel and the actuator / motor which is linked to the barrel with a metal rod inserted into a plastic clip.
I don't want to break anything and I would like to know before starting the repair how to remove the metal rod from the barrel assembly?
Please see picture below (I added an orange arrow to point the metal rod insertion I am talking about and for which I need help)

Should I just pull the metal rod? Any idea?
Thank you!

here is a drawing from which it looks like you can just pull the metal rod http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E3...em_2#1957996_2

Yes it looks like a 90° angle on the metal rod tip inserted in the plastic clip into the barrel. If anyone has ever removed those parts, I am curious to know how you proceed!
