Hey - for someone who really struggles with all things mechanical - this sorted me out. Nice one !

Thank you. Fixed my car yesterday. Peter from Sweden.

Thanks, great video, does it also work the same for the sliding door handle ?

Great video. Thank you!

Brilliant sir....Fixed mine today in ten minutes. I only had to move the cable outwards by a couple of notches to get the proper tension back. No coat hangers required. JW Scotland

READ COMMENT FROM @paint444. So much easier and quicker! Otherwise great video guide, thanks, it lead me to the solution for my door dangerously swinging open.

Thank you sir!

You sir, are an absolute legend! My passenger door handle was playing up after I fitted a new complete door. Thought I’d missed something deep inside the door associated with the lock actuator. Came across your video and boom……..fixed in 5 minutes without having to remove the door card. Thank you, you’re a star!! 👌

Great video and helped me locate the spring but now I've done this the handle now won't open the door?? I've also replaced the small cable in case it was stretched. Any suggestions what it could now be?? Help

Спасибо тебе добрый человек❤

Worked a treat. Thank you so much!

Amazing information and thank you for sharing it!!!

Thanks so much, saved me a load of grief!

Great, thanks - just subscribed

Cheers buddy, you just saved me a trip to the garage, not fun, especially with Xmas 2.5 weeks away, thanks again, You got a new subscriber 👍

Brilliant! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot 👍

Excellent video! Thank you so much !! 👏👏👏👍

Thanks a lot, exactly what I needed.

God level fix!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you. Repaired my door handle in 10minutes. Saved the vacation

Awesome just re fitted my handles. Correctly after painting a few months back 😂

But how would you do this on the sliding door ???

Cheers mate just sorted passenger door been like this for ten years. Van had been resprayed before I got it handles taken of obs!!! Need to do drivers door and all as should be.🤣😁👍👍👍

Thanks mate, been ‘dealing’ with that handle opening too far and having to ouch back in for Faaaaar too long. All sorted now. Big thanks 👌👍

...once youve removed the door lock try turning the screw back and forth and you will see the cam moving through the lock hole.

None of this is needed. The screw that releases the lock has a second function ...moving a small cam forward to trap the handle return lever against the door skin. This is why it is important to keep the door handle pulled in the fulley open position when unscrewing the svrew

Thanks so much for this. Works a treat although as you mentioned very fiddly

What is a t20 torque piece mate? Other names they go by? My handle has come right out.

Many thanks! You made my day! Your hints worked pretty well and that sucking door handle issue at my van is gone! Awesome video! Crisp, clear sound, no anoying music, no "like my channel"! Great!

My tottx screw wont tighten back up now..any ideas why?

Thanks so much for that instructional video, I followed it step by step and after almost 4 years of having a dodgy door handle it’s now fixed! It only took me 10 mins of fiddling with the self made coat hanger hook to get the little black catch inside the door. You’ve saved me (&others) so much time and money by teaching this little trick. Thanks and happy motoring, Huw

You my friend are a legend! The wife cannot now moan about the door handle every time we get in the van 🚐

Thanks dude sorted mine thanks to the video…… made your gadget and 💣 sorted after 6 yrs 👍🏾😎

Thank you so much for this video. I was about to go insane trying to reinstall my door handles after having them painted.👍👊

good job

I wish to thank you so much for this video instruction I have repaired my car today simply because I saw your video thank you

Excellent work! I've recently purchased a 2007 T5 and I have central locking issues. Central locking doesn't operate and I have to use the key to get in the drivers door. Locking button on driver's door doesn't lock/unlock all doors. Cannot get a key re programmed until central locking is working. Rear door doesn't lock and is vulnerable. Can you suggest what the problem might be please? Have to get it sorted to get a Roadworthy Certificate, or your equivalent of an MOT. Cheers, "T" in Melbourne, Australia.

Mate, you are a legend!! So happy people like you exist! Just putting this like this out there to help whoever may be in need! You probably just saved me a few hundred dollars at the mechanic!!!

Great video, thanks!

Plenty of opportunities here for me to really screw things up. Probably starting with me undoing the torque screw too far and it dropping it into the door.

Thank you very much that worked perfectly !!

thank you!

Love it! Thanks!

New to VW V5 life and this helped me perfectly..! Thanks ☺

Shame that a door handle can malfunction so easily.Shocking design.

Thanks for the vid, is it the same procedure on a Caddy 06?

Great video,,,, i have a Vw caddy 10 plate and recently have been unable to open my side loading door from inside or outside, the exterior handle comes all the way out just like in your video. Subscribed 👍

Anyone with any pointers on how to replace the wee cable if it's snapped(mine has!) Ta

Thanks so much .. you saved me

One of few no nonsense videos on here that doesn’t have skull splitting music and gets right to the point! Your tip worked perfectly. Thanks
