Supercharged 2 Posted October 28, 2003 Door handles break, very common problem. Only fix is to replace - do a search on here, lots of stuff about it and upgrading to rear passat handles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted October 28, 2003 Yep sounds like the latching pin has snapped a very common corrado fault they can be replaced by passat rear handles and mechanisms for quite cheap £40 roughly for both sides rather than VW's price for one corrado handle which stands at £60 odd IIRC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted October 28, 2003 Josh, you will need to have remote locking to do the Passat Handle mod as you will loose the locks, if you want to keep the car looking stock GPC do the Corrado Handles for £45 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
