Hello, newbie here, my 2008 a3 s line has a dead passenger front door, no signs of life, no sounds of actuators moving like in the other 3 doors. Wont open from the inside or outside handles. Also no pressure on either handles , like not connected. How do I get the door card off with door shut? Any help would be greatly appreciated as booked in for mot next week and its a fail!!
