beakysian Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The passenger door on my Mk2 has stopped closing properly. Poking around the door, it seems that the latch has lost its springiness and each time the door is opened, I have to reset the latch position manually before slamming the door. Anyone experienced this? I'd like to find out if it's fixable or going to be a new door mech before forking out for diagnostic work at the garage. Thank you, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried squirting everything that moves with lots of oil, and working it in? Sometimes does the job if is is just dirt. For a guide to getting to the door latch parts, see: This turned out to be a broken bowden cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
