J all you gotta do is take the handles apart and tighten everything up. All the **** inside gets lose and starts to FAIL. Its easy I did it to mine and they feel brand new.

I just got new door handles. The price was worth having it work for another 15-20 years.

No disrespect to dance crews or anything but ******* godamn! When you people come into the shop please do not start pop locking and dancing. Yeah we have music blasting and makes you want to do something but please be respectful and calm down. Simmer down! I always watch people try on a new era hat and then all of a sudden go to the mirror and start to bust a move. Wow are you serious, do not act like I am not there. It has become my pet peeve now with people. The funny thing is, it doesn't happen once in a while, it actually happens everyday. Do not start a circle in the store. Do not try on something and start sliding across the ground. It looks like a trend to me with every little asian kid. I don't know if you know but I am there laughing.

Yeah, there are a few differences.

S5's have clip-holes in the moulding areas, and they are shaped slightly different. You won't notice it right away, the change is so subtle.

You can take out your door handles, bring them somewhere to get em fixed. I know on your car, on the driver side door handle, the lock cylinder has the plastic door flap stuck in it. Fix it, and you'd be fine. I think places where you get spare keys made can do it, master of keys they are.
