[DML] Re: Driver's side gullwing problem





If the door lock mechanism freezes on you in the cold you should
remove the latch mechanisms, clean off all the old lubricant,
relubricate with something that can take the cold, and reinstall. It
sounds like the old grease is just sticking in the extreme cold. There
are springs in the latches but if the grease is dried out the springs
can't overcome the gunk. A short-cut would be to just take the trim
off the doors and try to wash out the grease with a spray cleaner like
Brake-Clean and then shoot some spray grease at them.
