Hi All,
Been a while since I have posted in here, however my old (now the wifes) MK4 Cupra TDI has the aobve mentioned problem.

If you open the door the and then go to close it the lock doesn't catch hold of the door... i.e the door will continue to swing about.

I have tried locking/unlocking/moving the actual catch/etc. The catch doesn't hold in the closed position the same way the drivers one does if you manipulate it with a screw driver.

Anyone had this issue or have any suggestions to an easy fix?

Otherwise I think it may be a trip to the stealers to get it fixed.

Thanks for any sensible suggestions.
