Driver's Side Door Problem

[matone_05]

Hello, has anyone ever had their driver's side door not open? Mine will not open, the door handle is kind of loose and you pull on the handle and nothing no click open sound. The door opens from the inside, but not the outside. Anyone else had this problem? How much $ am I looking at? Thanks -M@TT

That's pretty much my problem but nobody is answering it.

I dismantled my doors recently and have had a hard time getting the "cable" looped back in. That's probably your problem, the cable popped out and is probably hanging. I have no idea on the cost, you might be able to do it yourself. All it takes is a friend to help you out and removing 5 screws, three on the very bottom of the panel you'll need a 15 torq and two underneath the door handle. Just remember everything is plugged in, so you just want to hold onto the door while someone helps you out. You pop the cable into place so it won't move after you loop the metal hook back into the hole for the door. I hope this helps but I've been having trouble with my cables, as well. It'll take and after opening the door like 3 or 4 times it come loose. That's my issue right now. Good Luck

I had it happen on my golf the whole handle needs to be replaced. it probably broke the mechanism that is. And Just so you know I never did fix the golf of that problem.
