About Door Handles

The Audi door handle is a vital component of the car door, enabling the person to get into the car.

A car door will have both an internal and an external handle. Most car door handles are made of strong plastic or metal. The Audi door handle is an exterior door handle, fixed to the inner door frame with the aid of bolts, which are hidden by the inner door panel.

Door handles work with a pulling and latch mechanism, and are usually attached to this mechanism by screws. The door handle mechanism consists of a latch, a toothed wheel and a rotor which are contained behind the door panel. When the door handle is opened this causes the latch to release. The person can apply pressure to the Audi door handle and, holding on to the handle, pull the door open (aided by the hinged mechanism of the door).  The person can also push the door shut with the help of the Audi door handle. 

There are many different shapes, styles, materials, finishes and colours when it comes to car door handles. Purchasing a Audi door handle will ensure you get the right part, designed to fit the make and model of your vehicle. There are also various car door handle accessories, which, like the door handles, are usually specific to car make and model, and not an option for all, such as a handle guard and handle cover.

If the door handle isn't functioning properly, sticking, jamming or refusing to open, it's a sign that you may need to replace the Audi door handle with one that is compatible with your vehicle.

Audi trivia

• Volkswagen owns the Audi brand, after buying it from Daimler-Benz way back in the 1960s.
• The word Audi is a Latin translation of the word Horch, which incidentally is where we get the word audio from!
• Audi was the first manufacturer to use four-wheel drive cars in the World Rally Championship. Consistent wins meant that the WRC soon allowed all cars to use the technology.
• The classic Audi ‘four-ring’ logo is instantly recognisable and is meant to symbolise the four companies that make up the main trading arms of Audi.
• The RS3 is lighter than you might think. That's because the five-cylinder engine isn’t made from cast-iron but instead from aluminium. That means it only weighs around 26kg!
