Abstract
The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock, having a locking mechanism comprising substantially a rotary latch and at least one pawl. A drive for acting on the locking mechanism is also provided. A blocking element which interacts with the pawl has at least one pawl arm which holds the pawl in a latching position. Finally, a stop arm is realized on the blocking element and/or on the pawl and/or on a release element, said stop arm acting as a stop for the drive. According to the invention, the blocking element is arranged on an edge which is averted from the rotary latch and also so as to laterally overlap the pawl.
