Hey, my door handle was working perfectly fine and then decided to stop today, it still opens from the inside however, it feels like outside handle isnt pulling on anything and it doesnt open?

Can anyone give me any advice on this and thankyou in advance.

Pry out the plastic door triangle trim panel (opposite to the outside door handle). Unbolt the door handle and you should be able to see if the opening mechanism is attached to the handle. Plastic handles tend to brake (I had the same symptom and finally it just fell off) so you'll be able to check that also.

The same happened to my car, i think it is worth getting aluminum door handles

Once you get it fixed, lubricate the insides of the lock mechanism so it doesn't break again. I used lithium spray grease.
