P2 Volvo Interior Door Handle Repair
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
- 2019 update: That $8 strip of mild steel is still holding, 3 years later. For less than an hour if work, absolutely no regrets. Everything else on the car is falling off faster than the door panel, so I'll call it a success.
Sorry it's aligned vertically, this was originally not done for public consumption.
The small clips that hold the interior door handle cable will eventually break. Either when removing the door panel for a different service or just from daily use. Rather than buy the full door panel from Volvo ($250), or even an aftermarket replacement for the black trim containing the handle ($60), this repair used a clip to hold the cable in place. Works in 2001-2008 Volvo sedans and wagons. #Volvo #v70 #s60 #xc70
dude you are the only one around all UA-cam that showed the real repairing. and not just "removing" the panel.
thanks.
Excellent. Volvo MD wanted €650 to repair (won't go into what they wanted to do!) using this UTUBE Video job done in 90 minutes plus 2 euros for piece of metal 25mm wide 3 mm thickness . U bend inside Gap 23.5 mm ,legs 20mm. Chamfer lead in edges. Well done you guys saved me a fortune.
Binder Clips Paper Clamp the larger ones
Thanks snakeil, the perfect "how to" in the perfect moment: I broke handle a couple of week ago and I didn't know where to put hands. Five minutes ago I've finished the job and handle works again. Thank you!
I just applied your solution and the door handle is working again. Let’s see how much life we get out of it.
Tegin sama remondi. Alles eile, praegu toimib.
I used your video to fix mine. I used aluminum I pulled out of an old computer power supply instead of steel; much easier to manipulate. Added JB Weld epoxy to be sure it stayed in place. Thanks for the vid and the link to the part if the repair doesn't hold.
Thanks for that tip. Similar problem happened on my totally unrelated 99 Mitsubishi, pushed the window down switch and the switch assembly went down into the door panel. I'll get the panel off and come up with a similar fix.
On my 2007 Volvo V70 I fabricated a C clamp from aluminum bar stock. I used a 1” wide by 1/8” thick aluminum bar. The C clamp dimensions I used were 23.5 mm clear between the 2 vertical legs and 20 mm for the length of each vertical leg. The clamp fit very nicely around the door pull to cable connection similar to the steel clamp used in this video. I then used duct tape to keep the aluminum clamp from falling off. So far it is working like a charm! Thanks for your video post.
Dude, love this. You sound just like me when I'm working on it. And you helped fix my door handle!
Thanks just done mine 😀
Thank you for this! Just had my window repaired, was stuck down, got it back from them with a broken door handle. Sheesh! I’m fixing it myself.
I used a hammered and bent bottom of a beer can, pencil eraser, and zip tie working of your fix. Thank you.
Looks like easy money to me lol. Good job this is what I needed Thanx man you are a savior.
Hahaha! Thanks I needed a laugh, and to fix my V70 handle.
I'm wondering if I can just remove the door handle assembly from the back door and use it in the front. They both look the same...yes I know my rear door won't open from the inside but at least if swapping them out works I won't have to roll my window down everytime
I just fix my XC90 2004 door handle clips with this trick. I hope that the repair holds ! Thank you
awesome job i had the same exact problem with my passenger rear door . thanks !
Hi: I've tried duct tape and it works.
i think Binder Clips Paper Clamp will work better
I don't know why I didn't think of that, but I'd love to see it! Original repair still holding.
This guy may be onto something! I'll test this out and confirm. If all else fails, will probably just replace the part.
I wish I saw this before I royally fucked my door up. Definitely going back in to fix it.
This guys so funny...u shud do stand up man!!! Great job by da way...mine Volvo S60 handle broke like 3 times...got it done, modified it...if it brakes again...I gotta change the whole door panel...Fakkkk
Aitäh hea mõtte eest! Minu autol jäi ukselink poolde vinna. Enam tagasi ei läinud poole pealt. Trossi ots oli tagant ära tulnud ja takistas linki. Tagasi pannes trossi otsa oma kohale tuli proovides uuesti ära. Tegin samamoodi nagu siinne õpetus ja link töötab nii nagu peab.
nice fix. tanks
hi ive exactly same problem with my 04 vyo. what is the parts number for that broken parts? ill really appriciate ur help. THANKS
Depends on your year. Mine's a 2002, so this would've fit. Half hour of work was more fun than spending any money, but this is the fix if/when my fix fails. www.ebay.com/p/Interior-Door-Handle-for-2001-2007-VOLVO-V70-2001-2009-S60-Front-Driver-Plastic/2100924425?iid=351462215406
