Abstract

A vehicle door lock having a rotary latch arrangement and a release mechanism. The rotary latch arrangement includes a lock case in which a pivoted rotary latch and a pivoted locking pawl are arranged. The release mechanism includes a first release device with a traverse tube, a cable pull mechanism with a traction element led through the traverse tube and means for actuating the cable pull mechanism, and a pivotable actuation lever that engages in the lock case and which comprises two opposite actuation lever lateral surfaces. The actuation lever is rotatably connected with the first release device to be driven about an actuation lever rotary axis, wherein the locking pawl can be actuated by rotating the actuation lever so that the locking mechanism of the rotary latch can be released.
