Hello, I have a s max Mk1 but the drivers door external handle is broken. I ripped off the door cards, and had a fumble about and found that this mechanism is broken.  Does anyone know where I can get one from? Or if they have one spare?

 

Currently I have zip tied the door opening cable that connects to the left side of this part so I can still open the door from the outside. 

 

If it's a MK1 I would suggest looking at VW specialists

So its probably a VW Sharan door mechanism? Would they have this in eurocarparts?

You sure you're not thinking mk1 Galaxy which was a VW Sharan with Ford bits? The S-Max is basically an MK4 Mondeo underneath.

No, I don't think so. You'll need to go to Ford or a breakers for a 2nd hand part

Parts diagram HERE It will either be part of the handle or something else.
