Side Loading Door

Post by squire »

I have never been able to open my door from the inside and yesterday it opened from the inside and then fell out . Does any one know where i can get it repaired. I have pushed the door in and its staying put for the mo' :?:

Not sure if this will work...? But i'm offering a driver or a passenger door to any one who can repair it, i have 2 white ones with Joker emblems on them and a maroon one. The white ones are complete winders glass etc, the maroon one has no glass.
Not being a mechanic i might be miles off the mark with this one, so if someone can do it and simply wants paying then no problemo, or it may be more of a 2 door deal :wink: .

Last time i looked into it i was told i need the mechanism, i have checked with VW at trafford park and they will only offer me a whole complete door for mucho ackers. I live in Manchester.

if the whole door fell off i'd talk to someone who breaks em like cj at synchro spares cos you'll need rollers runners etc?
