Vitz 2002 issues-locks, handles, power window, front bearings and idle - Toyota Yaris Forums

So its around 120K km, I have now fixed the window ( loosened motor bolts, gave the gears a gentle tap with a hammer... I think It might have gone of the end tooth or sat closed for weeks on end and seized...

I think the drivers door lock is stiff as the inner door housing is bent and putting pressure on the lock bit... For this reason it takes a few presses of the key to lock the door!

I will take it to a garage to get the bearings done!

Given how much of a pain it was to put the inner door back on for the driver (little plastic clips snapped...) I won't bother adjusting/replacing the springs in the other door handles!
