Hi peeps. Newbie here who needs to speak with people who actually know what they are talking about, rather than the main stealers who sit around in suits and know bot all.
My Abarth door handle came off in my hand - piece of plop, I know. Anyways, being a tight wad, I read up online and discovered it's probably a pin thingy. I bought one, and it wasn't that. I bought a new handle, and although it was that, my son broke something else - a lock rod? It worked once, then popped out and didn't work again.
I booked into the stealers, and they have said it is a clip on the lock rod broken, and lo and behold, it can't be fixed today, they will have to wait until Monday to find out the part, and then book me in for the following week. Also, when my well meaning son tried to fix, he split a membrane - of course he did, who wouldn't?
Ultimately, I would like to get the part (Amazon prime would be cool) and take it to another garage (the stealers drove it off to another garage anyway) BUT, I don't know what part it is I am looking for.
My questions are a) does anyone know the clip, or whole part? and b) do I really need a new membrane? c) if I do, what will happen if I don't?!
Please help, as climbing in the passenger side and flinging the driver door open is not a good look on a middle aged lady with a fat backside.:devil:
