First of all hi to everyone-i am a newbie! I wonder if anyone knows how to fit/replace the external door handle on my mk6 fiesta (2004). I bought the car recently and the door had had the glass replaced. The problem is that it opens ok from the inside, but although the handle pulls on the outside it wont open from there. john.n

Hi, thanks for the reply. I took the door card off-then the inner 1, what a nightmare. I just cant figure out what is wrong. Removed the philips screw that holds the small part of the exterior handle and then the actual part you pull just comes off, but god knows why it wont open the door. john.n

SORTED IT! There was a small screw missing from behind the small part of the handle-from the outside. It connects the part that moves with the handle to the part that lifts the door release. john.n
