Broken door handle help

Recommended Posts

Hi All

My 1990 16v has a broken drivers door handle.

I've been told this is common but not sure what the common fault is with the handle.

With mine its a part of the cast metal broken off that holds a spring in place, can this be fixed ?

If not any ideas for where to get a handle at a decent price ? its the handle with wireing

attached.

 

Cheers

Saul

There is a repair kit now available, search on here...

 

New handles are £50 from GPC or If you have remote locking you could fit the rear passat handles and mechs (again have a search for info)

You need to be sure it's the common striker arm that has broken. You say it's a cast metal part that holds the spring in place. The striker arm doesn't hold a spring in place. Look at my signature pic to identify the striker arm.
