Car is a UK 635 CSi Highline...over recent weeks it has become increasingly difficult to open nearside door.
Initial symptom was to lift external door catch but door didn't release, however if you gave it a little pull the door opened.
Over time the pull required became more severe until now, if you lift the external handle and no matter how hard the pull the door will not open.
However from inside pulling the internal door handle releases the door effortlessly.
Initially I am loathe to start taking off door cards and interior trim as I am not sure how the external door handle is connected to the lock release mechanism
Is there a form of adjustment from the handle to the latch mechanism ? Can it be adjusted ? Is there something that wears out ?
The central locking mechanism works perfectly...any help or comment would be appreciated.
