did you change the spring? is is that big one where the latch connects the the sliding door. What did you have to do? I got the door off and I am looking at it. It looks fine to me. ----- Original Message ----- From: "w.wood" <evil.scientist.boo@xxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, November 6, 2009 12:37:35 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: [tcb] Re: Sliding door challange vs. Austin VW dub show There's a spring in there that gets it to pop out. I had to fix it a long time ago but it's in the door where the slider mounts to it. Basically when the latch is released it causes the door to pull away from the body.

I pulled the rear latch off and cleaned it all up and oiled it - no improvement. So I am debating pulling to door off tonight , take the lock off and see if there is a way to lube them. Must be something inside. all the bearings look good. Door gets worst when its get colder - during the summer the door opens up fine, I did put a new seal on the sliding door last year and I even coated the rubber with some silicon to make sure the seal wasn't causing the door to hang..... If I get cant it all back together I'll catch everyone at the next show. -- My Email Moniker http://www.findinternettv.com/Video,item,1570570433.aspx
