Useful video, thanks. I would have liked to have seen the process of removing (and successfully refitting!) the interior door panel, that is the part that I was unsure off.

Good job turning a pain to headache to success! Interesting to see that as the failure point. I've seen on the 850s where the metal fatigue occurs at the body instead, likely due to excess force absorbed at that point instead of being dissipated through the door check mechanism.

First video I’ve seen of this. My door is similar to yours was. Strap was torn out as of the door was hit then replaced. It’s the original door though. Strange stuff!

Ah, the 15 minute fix that turns into 3 hours. Been there. Nice to see you got it fixed.

Murphy's came to visit you.

The strap is broken on my car, you got an extra one??

Hoping mine is not broken at the door.
