Hey guys, got a wee problem. Passenger door has somehow become jammed, only noticed today. I just drive myself to town most days so don't know how long its been playing up.
Central locking is working cos button still pops up, but when you try to open the door something is catching or not letting off. Must be 2 'catches', and one is still letting off. Door moves (you know when you don't close it properly? It's like that, then u have to bump it back!!)
Anyone have any idea what's wrong and/or how to fix it before me (or Dez) starts hacking my car to bits.

Might just cut the door out! Who needs it anyway, it's just in the way and causes problems such as this! Seatbelts hold you in anways. A cheap source of air con.

Take the door card off, and look behind the handle - there is a bar with a black plastic piece on it ... make sure thats still connected wen u pull the handle cos sometimes it wears away

Problem sorted!
It's self-healing, think it went on strike for a while
