Title: ARGH! Interior and Exterior door handle broken!
Post by: Sean_318is on April 13, 2010, 06:34:03 AM

My drivers door Interior and Exterior door handles are now both broken!

This morning I tried to get out of the driver's side and the interior handle was floppy. Feels like the rod has slipped off somewhere :(

Any ideas how to fix it?

Thanks

Did they break at the same time. Normally the interior handle just brakes where the plastic joins the metal rod.

The exterior has been broken for a while :( I can see the screw for the interior handle so I'll have a go at it.
