After breaking two door handles I finally decided to spend couple of
hours lubing the mechanisms in all doors. They work very good now. I
agree the door handles are pieces of sh*t and the mechanism needs much
more frequent lubing and adjusting than on any other car I know, but if
you do this regularly they should be quite reliable.

Contact cleaner has brought my switches back to life. What I hate about
those switches is that they are so difficult to open without doing
damage.
