Anybody got lucky a broke a door carrier

[jsoto]

Heh, been a E53 owner since '03. It's been the wife's car when I picked up my F10. I let her take the F10 to work today with the xDrive equipped while I worked from home today.

Just came back from cleaning out all the snow, and the ice-ridden frozen mix that was on the X. Pulled on the door handle slowly, no resistance, which was a good thing. Pulled ont he drivers side. No resistetence. However, both doors were not opening up freely. The weatherstripping is nice and lubed with Gummi Fledge. It was just the wintery mix that help the door tight. Gave it a good hard tug and the door broke free from the icy mix holding it to the chassis.

Whew, I say. Dodged a golden bullet and no broken door carrier ;-)
Me wonders how many E53'ers were not so lucky this season.
