Default New Member - Need some advice

Hi All,

I have recently been bequeathed a S-Type 4.0 V8 2000 model, which has a couple of issues:

1. 3 out of 4 of the Door actuators have seen better days and the passenger door doesnt open at all and when i push the door button the doors re lock almost instantly.

2.The rear veiw mirror is stuck between tinted and clear

If any1 has any advice for the above issues it will be much appreciated

Mark P

Welcome to the forum Mark,

Good to have you with us.
It will probably be an actuator, but check the tech section for more info.
