i had a problem with the left rear door handle on my ltd after buying and putting in a brand new one it just wouldnt open from the outside so i stuffed around and changed and modified the i think its the snippet rod still no change then i thought huh must be the door handle itself so i put the old one back in and it worked so i had to take the new one back and replace it with one that did work. so it was a dud i wonder how many other people have had this problem. this might be the problem in your situation mate.

Have u tried putting upward pressure on the bolt with the socket and and ratchet to prevent the clip from spinning? also try to get the bolt on a certain angle with your socket to kind of lock in the broken clip while u undo the bolt or a thin chisel & hammer and break the bolt head off.

Hi all i noticed the other day that when i have either the left or right indicator on when im at the lights with the brake on the indicator clicks really quickly & the light also blinks really quick but it doesnt do it if my foot isnt on the brake. My first thought was maybe it needs a new flasher anybody else had this issue? This is the Zl btw.
-
Thanks VDO ill get stuck into it on the weekend.

Got it done, i was able to lever one part of the the flange out enough to get one of the nut & bolt on & did it up a little bit then was able to squeeze the coupler & flange together enough to get the second nut & bolt on & start tightening them up nothing was gentle about the whole process. Now just need to put the steering linkage back on the pitman arm & im done.
-
Ive tried prying levering the on the flange but nothing seems to be happening.
-
Just finished removing the whole PS sysrem now im about to put in the new well second hand new manual steering box but the steering column is a bit short can i lever it or smack it out abit or do i need a steering column out of a non PS car?
-
I once used thé base of a bottle jack to smack the steering arm up & off the pitman arm. But ill get a pitman arm puller cos i dont have that bottle jack anymore.
-
Cool thanks mark, i just came back from lukegt's and bought a whole manual steer box with pitman arm connected so im going to change from PS to manual in the Zl. The PS box in the Zl has had it.

We've all done dumb shit like that, i remember back in 2004 i bought an xf GL from a car yard $400 it had the métal venetian on the inside, cruising in Melton with mates and what did i do pulled over to the side of the road & pulled it off the back window & threw it on the side of the road. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
-
YES mate they are.
