Linus Van Pelt 0 Posted April 1, 2004 only me... :mrgreen: Next on the list... Recently noticed that my drivers side door handle is loose. By that I mean the bit you pull to open the door can be moved out to about 5-10mm without any effort and won't engage opening the door until you pull it with proper force. I think the door handle is staying out if you just let go (which means the door doesn't close again :lol:) I know these things often break/snap... is this a sign it's about to go, or is it less sinister and just needs something tightening (and/or lubricating) up? Cheers, DtM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted April 1, 2004 Sounds like it's on the way... :( Lube it though, definitely. It can't be adjusted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Linus Van Pelt 0 Posted April 1, 2004 dr_mat, you again! (people will talk ya' know!) :lol: mutter, mutter, grumble, grumble... ...anyone got any spare? :wink: DtM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted April 1, 2004 Spares don't work, they're either broken or about to break it honestly doesn't seem worth paying someone £20-30 for a handle that's gonna break in 6 months instead of paying £50 for a brand new one that you *should* have a year or two on. And the people talking had better not mention to my boss that I spend all my life putting comments on this da*mn forum! ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Linus Van Pelt 0 Posted April 1, 2004 I'm assuming GPC (@ £45) is still the de facto place to get replacements (I'm not interested in the rear passat delocked thang)? DtM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 1, 2004 I gotta get a drivers one too. Had an 'interesting' time in the car park yesterday when I couldn't open my door :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
