    Default Door problem

    hi people i think i have a problem with my drivers door...

    after i unlock the door i find the outside handle to be very hard to pull up - i almost feel like i'm about to break it. Then to top it off when i shut it for the first time after this i can't get the door to fully close, only half shut. It doesn't matter whether or not gently push or if i fly kick the bastard it still won't fully close first go!
    Then after i open the door to fully shut it the door handle acts fine, and then on shutting it now it shuts fine....

    i repeated this 20-30 times this arvo with the same result each time.

    What the hell is going on?

    take the inner door skin off and go to town with you favorite lube of choice.crc will free it up straight away but will soon rub off TAC2 is a good spray on lube that doesnt vanish into thin air.just whatever you have reallyspray the shit out the mechanism and pul the handle up and down a heap of times and she will free up
