Rear Door Latch

1
Hi chaps,

Has anyone suffered the lazy rear door latch syndrome ?
Push the button and the latch only half opens ? Possible to open the door
but not close it.
Mine's remote central locking and after it gets stuck half way I have to press
the button twice to get it to the fully open position so I can then close the door.

Any suggestions welcome.

Mark,

Try some lubrication.

Cheers,

did you try spraying a good spray lube in the mechanisms ?
that's always the first step on anything that moves , in my world.

I find hundreds of spots to lube on T3 vans that have never been touched since the factory ..
hundreds of them ...things that move in concert with on another. No body lubes 'em that I see , or rarely let's say.
