rear drivers door lock is stick

Could either be the orange tab in the snib. Check that it is all the way in.

Otherwise, pull the door trim and give the mechanism inside the door a liberal dose of CRC / WD40 and work it manually to free it up.

I don't think it's the orange plastic I think it's just gunked up and needs a bit of lubing up as it gets stuck closed as well as not locking and that window is really slow so it could do with a grease up to

After another drive today and giving that right pedal a good stomp I now know the steering needs aligning as the wheel shakes like Micheal J Fox at 100 but its all coming together and I'm pretty happy.
The steering wheel shaking usually means a wheel out of balance, get your front wheels balanced before looking any further. Cheapest and easiest way out

Thanks man, Old man said the same thing doesn't help that they're Ve machined wheels so it could be that as they might be sitting on the hub off centre.

The taper on the wheelnuts should center it up and sit in the right position
