Hi all,

All of a sudden today, my driver's side exterior door handle decided to malfunction. When I pull the door handle (unlocked) from outside, nothing happens. I'm not sure if the cable snapped or disconnected. How easy/hard is it to remove the interior door panel and see if it's slipped off? I'm assuming if it is, it can't be too hard to fix. is there a link to this repair? While I'm there, the door lock actuator has been failing for some time. Some times it pops up/down with central locking, sometimes it doesn't. Is that an easy DYI or should I have dealer look at it. FYI, it is an '01 3.0i. I am the original owner and am within 50 miles of 100k miles.

Thanks in advance.
