I have had this problem for some time now.

When I lock the car (central locking) the rear passenger side door "door pin" only goes down half way.

The main problem with this is that the door doesnt actually lock unless I push the pin all the way down! Sad

What can I do?

WD40 works for me! Laughing Better if you take the door card of and get in about it but with the wee red bit on the can you can do it without taking the card off!

Used to have this problem.

WD40 works for a bit.

But also clean up the ground points.

You have to get the trim off in front of the front doors to find them.

I think Chris H did a tech thing on where they are.
