3 down 1 to go!!

So yesterday I phuqqed up my door handle for the 1st time. I now have a total of 3 screwed up handles. The other 2 I did not do. The only good one is driver door. I can't wait to complete the whole set!

What I mean by screwed up is when I open the door, the door opens but when you let go of the handle, it is suppose to spring back in place. Now my handles do not spring back in place but they still open. I think there is a spring inside the door that popped out of place or some shit. Anybody has ALL their doors like this?? anybody fixed it before? if so, post up a DIY with pics...please. Lets make a club of this, I'll be the president.

sounds like the inside bar where it connects to the locking mechanism of the door jamb is stuck... pop the panel off you door, and pull on the bar and try to see how much play it has... i used WD40.. my rear door driver side did it... and i wiggled it around and WD40 alot...

it also happened on my 95 accord coupe.. driver side door..

I have the same problem also, its my driver door I have asked the dealership after I have taken out the handle out of the door. they said it needs to be replaced. theres a plastic that holds the spring that broke off.
