hey plym, I had this on my passenger door. It's a sticking actuator on the central locking mechanism, you'll need to take the door trim off and give it a good clean and oil,if that doesn't work you'll need to replace it.

Heya Ian, just wondered if you managed to fix your doorlock as mine appears to be doing the same as yours! Are you still in Plymouth?

yes I managed to fix it, it just needed a good clean and lube. now the lock mech when I turn the key is so smooth.

yes I am in Plymouth just by the city centre north road west, where are you?

no worries I'd be glad to help, wouldn't be able to look at it for a couple of weeks though as I haven't got a day off and the evenings are too dark.
