Evora door handle failure

My door handle stopped working on my Evora last night.  A quick google around last night it seems other people have had problems with the solenoid, so when I took it apart this morning I was expecting that.  However I’ve had a failure of the plastic where the door handle connects to the rod of the mechanism.B052707F-F383-40EC-9933-EDCD64BE7DD3.thumb.jpeg.a9b09d887109c03b05c7d643a8b81378.jpeg

I’ve superglued it and then drilled and tie wrapped it, which has made it pretty strong.  However I expect it will fail again at some point so I’ll buy a new one and fit it at some point.  (Only about 10mins to take off door card and then two bolts.)

Thanks for posting Chris, looks like a good fix. I'm not surprised it has broken, when opening my door it always feels like something is bending before the mechanism actually works.

At least it looks like one of the easier fixes :tup:
