Door Actuator

I need a door actuator for my 2002 LS 430. How do I know if I need the actuator with "easy close" or the one that does not need "easy close"

thanks

Bill

Umm... do your other doors automatically latch/suck themselves shut if you click them in slightly? I assume that's the "easy close"

This is a BMW, but same feature:

is the door lock not working? If so you can repair it by replacing a $5 DC motor. Thats how I fixed my moms LX470 door lock. No thanks to a $400 part from lexus

I knew some high end flagships like 7, LS, S-Class had "Soft Close" or "Suction Doors" but didn't realize 5-Series offered them too. Damn you GS hurry up !
