I've got 3rd party exterior door handles fitted and the passenger side one when pressed doesn't quiet release the door catch enough to allow the door to open easily. Drivers side works perfect. Does anyone know if there is any adjustment on these, pfa.
Thanks

What does the striker pin on the door sill look like, as when it is maladjusted and missing the nylon collar, they can cause the latch to bind.
Agree the plastic collar always goes AWOL, wrap some insulation tape around it as a 'temporary' fix (that will prob end up a permanent fix)

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

If you do get a replacment be aware that there are a few different lengths, when fitted very careful and gently close the door, dont slam it and dent the door …..
