Just recently my drivers door lock started buzzing, like a gear may be
stripped when I try to close / open it, but it works - at least so far. I'm
sure there is a gear that drives the lock up and down? but it does seem to
work. When you even open the door, you hear this noise, like a buzzing..

Any ideas?

The Door Lock Motor is no good & needs to be replaced the part is not
that hard to change if still under warrentry return to the dealer for
the repair if out then choice is yours to repair

Is for the New York City Firemen who lost their lives on September 11,2001.
The official count is 343, but there was also a volunteer who lost his life
aiding in the initial rescue efforts. And I will never forget them as
long as I live,
nor should any American.

Thanks, not under warranty for sure.. any ideas how to get the door panel
off? I usually end up breaking something - like plastic door holders that
attach the panel to the metal part of the door.

Replace tt with t (twice!) and remove parentheses to email me directly.
(But I check the newsgroup more often than this email address.)
