Drivers door handle broke

Another little patience tester…..

went to the car on Saturday morning and the door wouldn’t open. Handle was sticking out a little and would not release the door. All the other doors were fine so I tried the inside.. door opened fine. 
after a bit of head scratching and googling, I came to the conclusion that the door handle retainer had broken. A Quick Look on Amazon and £25 and 24 hours later I had the part.

there are a couple of vids online that show you how to replace it. It’s a bit fiddly but after a brief amount of swearing and an hour the door now works again! 
success! …. Until the next episodes… 

 

I think the cars got the hump with us since we made it pull a caravan and talked about getting a Porsche cayenne 😂

The old E53 Door Handle carrier fail one of the most common E53 faults, and you don't even need to pull it to hard 🤣

She is teaching you not to Blaspheme Posche !!!! Don't get the V6 they are as dear to run as the V8 and can be surprisingly fragile. Brother Inlaws experience brought one to tow his boat
