Muscat350 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Hi, My drivers side exterior door handle has stopped working. The central locking is fine and the door opens from the inside. The handle has a weighty feel but I see no metal bits move in the latch mechanism when i pull it. Is this a common or DIY fix or should I book in with Dr Nissan? I have no access to quality indies. I'm not sure if its related but for some time the drivers side window has been intermittent (including the lowering/raise when the door is opened), it could be cured with a few light slams. Even so, impressed by an 8yr old sports car in which the door handle breaks before the clutch! Just another 28,014 faults to go until it catches up with a TVR of similar age.

DoogyRev Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 ..... I am sure he will have the bits you need to fix the door handle Oh and if you have not had the clutch fixed yet he will have those bits too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muscat350 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 Thanks for the reply. Sorry....I should have mentioned....I'm in Muscat, Oman. Out here it's main dealer or car butcher. I don't mind MD but booking/dropoff/pickup is a right pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muscat350 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 haha it doesnt work like that out here. The (only) Nissan garage/service centre was desert 10 years ago. Swiss Army Knifed the door apart this afternoon, the faulty bit was in a part of the inner door I'd rather not access so main dealer it will be. Enjoyed playing 350Z lego. The original parts list on the Nizmo site was handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
