Hi All, I realise this is very short notice, but any thoughts about my thread below.

http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/messages/283/196109.html?1190436620

Perhaps someone who has experienced this problem could provide me with some advice tomorrow?

Thanks Rob

I decided to pull the door trim off and have a look. I couldn't see anything broken and everything else is working perfectly, so I think the handle itself might be stuffed.

Has anyone got an FSG drivers door handle they are willing to part with?

Sorry to all that I missed it, I hope my not
bringing the sauce wasnt too big a problem.

I went to hospital instead, 3 general anesthetics later my right shoulder is still dislocated, I have to go back when the swelling goes down...

Really sorry I missed it I wanted so bad to show off the new car to people who have an appreciation for these sorts of things and meet all of you.

I can assure you Ill be at the next event come hell or high water, hopefully Ill be able to get everything together to go on the TTUNED cruise and see some of you there, hopefully my arm'll be in better shape them (swollen so it look slike theres a pair under my skin atm :-)).

sorry again all.

A top day it was! If only we'd had some sauce!!! Booya to new brake pads on the front, a cleaned up fuel sender, new indicator on RHS bumper and sparkly clean headlights!! Many thanks to Ash for his hard work. Also thanks to Pete for providing the location, experience and help with doing the fuel sender and a bit of brake fluid.

Thanks to Peter again for hosting another fix it day. Great way to get ideas, problems solved, and a general catch up and chat. (I actually saw Bens car with nearly all his interior - what a shock). :-)


Didn't get anything fixed as I couldn't be bothered, but thanks for hints on adjusting the headlights.

Next time I'm bringing the sauce & bread, snags without them are just not right.

The banjo bolt was to long, and yes
mind you doing 180kmph going into turn 3 and braking at 100mtrs into turn 4 at Philip Island will be the big test,

Many Congrats Ashley! Let me know when she gives you the hard word to sell the Soarer for a more 'family' oriented car (like a Kia Carnival, Toyota Tarago etc) and I'll make you an offer

Yes, yes I do. And I feel even more special with my awesome red calipers!

Now we just need to fit them with the new rotors and sway bars and we'll be set. How soon can you organise the other bits?
