why does it get stuck again and again, i.e. after putting "Caramba" into it, its only the handle/latch , the lock itself moves freely with the remote, but the latch I have to bend open again with some tool or key.... - funny thing: for long times its o.k. and then again its stuck......
Another story which bothers me is the dash board scquiking - it needs some hits in the left corner - everything seems a bit loosly fit with these plastic covers. Anybody has some experiences with these little bothering things?
thank you - Hi from a happy german dico fan

sorry, I have to correct my spelling: its rear door lock (not "look")

It sticks because road spray fouls the lubrication on the handle, pop out the Land Rover oval on the door handle and the affected area is exposed and can be lubricated. Spray with WD40 or squirt some light oil into the mechanism and all will be OK.
Repeat every six months for trouble free operation, I think it is on the service list if you can afford a main dealer service, but it gets overlooked by others.
