    Hoping one of you gurus will know what's wrong with my VT ;)

    Was driving down the road yesterday, and my drivers door opened.. Pulled over, closed, opened, closed, opened, seemed fine so drove off again.

    Same thing happened every 100-200m all the way home, I just kept pulling it shut.

    So when I get home I try to investigate, but lets be honest I have no idea what I'm looking at. Go to lock the car with the key, all doors lock aside from drivers, and the horn beeps. Try to manually lock that door by pushing down the button but it won't budge.. So had to leave the car in the garage last night.

    Can anyone pin point my problem from my lame description? Any help much appreciated :D

    broken spring in door latch, needs a new latch
    the door latch is the part that locks on to the door striker
    not as common to fail on holdens so grab one from the wreckers
