additional note, door doesn't lock manually either

on the inside, on the centre dash, it comes up as "front left door open", even though its closed, not sure if that helps, it never before we changed doors

yeah, we tried adjusting the strike plate, but it doesn't adjust, using the screwdriver method to test the latch itself, and the latch seems to not work at all for a while, then it does for a while, could there be something wrong with how we put the outside handle back in? as in, when we got the outside handle out, you had to put a screwdriver in and push back the white lever to release the handle? now wondering if we had to re-tension the spring tab or something?

absolutely at the end of my f*&^%$g tether with this thing now, its about 2 days away from being torched finally got the all the stuff of the old door, got door off, got the replacement one on, got all the stuff back into it, now the door latch is f'ing about, sometimes it'll shut, sometimes it won't, when it does shut, it won't lock or alarm now, f'ing great, only changing the door because of a couple of dents on the top of it, other than that it was fine, shut and locked with no problems, sick to death of it now

cheers bud, much appreciated

thanks for that, I'm guessing theres a diagram that accompanies this guide bud? theres no riveting or drilling out of rivets are there?

hi all, I'm changing the door, will all the window mechanism come out with the quarter light window all in one? http://i.imgur.com/iTBmCme.jpg

borrowed a set of drain plugs from the citron indy place, and used their 8mm one that fitted, but my 8mm didn't, :unsure: :rolleyes: :D yep, had the copper washer in there, :D all done now, just giving her a good polish up, replacing the tailgate, then should be up for sale

all done now, bit of a ball ache undoing the nut, but peace of mind now and to the next owner

this the stuff, yes? https://www.amazon.co.uk/TRANSMISSION-FLUID-MTF-U-MTF780-CARPLAN-x/dp/B0118KSXJK/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1498927463&sr=8-2-fkmr1&keywords=Transmission+SAE+75W80 pretty sure i got 2 litres of it somewhere, but i may just get another one litre just to top it up for now

yes, probably finding a copper seal would sum up just how frustrating this car is, :ph34r: tried the hammer technique as well, :lol: :lol: gonna try jacking the car up even higher just to see if i can get more leverage on it, otherwise, like you say, just have to put in about a litre and leave it to a garage and they can have the aggro, :D :D

well, i can see why theres no "youtube" video showing how to do the semi-auto fluid change, man, that things done up tight, not sure how I'm going to get that biatch off still not sure i can see where the fill up one is
