Rear door handle

plastic soul · Feb 13, 2013

Hi

To open my rear door I have to really yank the handle for it to open

Has anybody else had this or know what the problem might be?

yep its a small bit of plastic on the back of the handle that wares you can get round it by adjusting the operating rod. or it may just need graseing and freeing off. but don't keep just yanking it cos there's a plastic operating bar that can snap

lack of lubrication, handle, lock or striker maybe.

A lack of lubrication always causes problems

Sorted it
That white bit of plastic is flimsy isn't it
I went to adjust the threaded rod from the exterior handle and it snapped through rust, made a new one from a this piece of rod, job done!!
it's like a new handle now, best one on the car!
