Hi there

My car is a 55 plate turbo diesel 2.2.

I have a problem in that my passenger door will not open from the inside. I tried to remove the internal facia to see what was wrong but couldn't locate all the fixing points and screws. I think I got down to one screw or clip to undo but could not locate it. Had to abandon as I was a bit wary of applying too much force and breaking something.

Anyone know how to get into this.

Any advice would be great.

Regards

Ralph

You are on the right track. There are a few screws along the edge of the panel, then there are clips that attach the panel to the door. Make sure to remove the arm rest too.
