I have seen that the door handles can give problems on 240s, my driver side door opens but you need to like jiggle and pull hard to get it to open...I am afraid if I keep doing this I will break handle...I was pushing the closing mechanism( thing that latches to plate on car, I don't know the tech. names for these pieces, well anyways when I mess with that thing and put it in the closed position with the door open, then I pull the handle it doesn't open the latch, just relieves some pressure on it, which is why the door opens with jiggling and pulling I guess....what I am trying to ask is, will I need a new handle or is something just wearing out that can be screwed together, I will look for prior posts too....inside handle is fine, that is how I have been opening my door when the window is open...
