Dean @RW-Developments Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 this morning went outside to warm my car car up, but before i could even get into the car the bloody door handle stapped off in my hand, ive got my m.o.t tomorrow but fortunately there is a small piece of door handle still attached so i can still open the door ;) Quote
Asad Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 thats a new one ep door handle seem quite solid micra door handles are full of shit..... ;) good luck with the MOT buddy let us knw how she gets on Quote
addz Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Och.Saying that they're solid, i've noticed the handles are quite fragile.I also own a Corolla E11 (daily runner) almost felt the handle was goin to snap this morning too.Crazy weather. Quote
MattyCD Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Geos has snapped off partly before so its not uncommon Quote

kevink Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 mine snapped of last winter, it's a complete hell to replace one of these... Quote
SpeedFreak Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I love the winter, but hate the part where you have to go out 15mins early in the morning to de-ice and heat up the car!I tend to not pull my door handles off though LOL, if they are frozen I put warm water over the door first! Quote
Sparky Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 My drivers door handle is a bit dodgy but yea its quie a common faultThats why I have mentioned Carbon door handles to Dane at S-P-S so hopefully be able to have some of them Quote
Bourkey Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I've not done this on any Starlet but i did it regularly on my Micra. Was pretty funny. My dad did it the first day i picked it up .Did it pass it's MOT Dean???Bourkey Quote
Asad Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 pouring boiling water on them when they are freezing cold make them even more fragile i thinks? Quote
