Alphebetized 10 Posted November 27, 2016 Im a new driver and my first car happens to be a corrado that needs work. my car was fine up untill I pulled up to my house. I decided to do a walk around and check my doors and locks. I noticed my car door doesn't open my door anymore (the exterior door handle). I have to open the left side so I can access my right door handle from the inside to open my door. does anyone know a cheap fix? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted November 27, 2016 Remove the handle with the door open. Its just a single screw in the jam to remove it (You'll see the thread for it on the handle itself in this pic). Beware, I can't remember which but one of the screws (LH or RH) is reverse thread. You'll see the two parts on the inside of the handle in the pic too, but my guess is one of them has snapped. Its quite common, and the stainless replacements for sale on here or on ebay are a worthwhile upgrade. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Corrado-G60-VR6-16V-Door-Handle-Defect-Repair-set-Door-Handle-NEW-/191501623961?fits=Model%3ACorrado&hash=item2c9662e299:m:m0t0BJNzuJtkpf-1xanItIw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's a broken lock. You're need to take the door card off and remove the clipped in door handle wire, to get the handle out.
