The drivers door on my wife's 1992 240 is getting hard to open from the outside. You have to lift the handle about as far as it'll go before it opens. It feels like the mechanism or cable has worn or stretched to close to it's limits; is this an easy fix?
Thank you!

The door handles are a little fragile - some time a rivet in the pivot shears, and sometimes the casting breaks near that pivot. In any case, you're going to need to remove the door panel. Keep in mind the front and rear handles are the same - you can pop the one from the rear door into the front one, then worry about fixing the rear one at your leisure.
Thanks fo the reply! I'll pull that panel. Hope it's not too much of a PITA. Seems like i pulled it once and got stuck somewhere and stopped.
