How to fix a Range Rover door that will not open
It seems like an impossible task, you cannot open the door, you cannot remove the door card as you cannot get to the fittings (and its flanged in any case). Your options seems destructive, but trust me, just get a hacksaw blade, open the back door and you can cut the staple. In this video we looked at that yanked lock and see what can be done with it!
It may also be possible with a little endoscope and a long pipe to lubricate this via the window opening, something that is worth a shot if you have the bits to hand.
This is on a Landrover Range Rover L322.

I'm now going to go out and fix the passenger door lock on my range rover as a result of this brilliant video.
Thanks for this! I'm a bit of a DIY car person myself, so this was interesting and useful. Cheers!
I am 99.9% certain this is never going to be useful for me. But I'm going to file it away in case that 0.01% ever rears its ugly head.
It annoys me that the "designers" of these things don't make it a requirement to have a manual release that always works. Even a tiny hole to poke a probe into would be appreciated.
