Hello everybody, I've owned my 04 plate Vogue for 17 years, so have encountered and fixed most of the common faults associated with these fabulous vehicles.
The interior drivers side door cable is the likely culprit. Both interior and exterior handles just feel loose as if they are not connected to the cable. The black plastic lock knob works fine, pop's up and down with the central locking and manual key turn but the door is closed and I can't get it open to remove the door card to replace the cables. I've done loads of fiddly job's with the car over the years including the dreaded open heart surgery on the dash to change the blower motor, so I'm not intimidated by this latest frustration.
I've searched all the threads and I appreciate and totally agree that information should not be given out on an open forum on how to open a locked car door.
If any members can help please pm me, I'm totally genuine and will validate my identity. Alternatively, is there a way to remove either the exterior or interior handles with the door closed and the door card in place? I'm also going to book an auto locksmith to see if they can help.
