Stiff door handle

[Timpo]

My driver's door handle is very stiff (and loud) to pull when opening the door. While the passenger door is much softer and feels normal. I'm guessing either something is worn or the door has dropped slightly and is sitting heavier on the catch.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

check the hinges, open door fully and then lift it up and down from the furthest point and look for play

also check the catch adjustment, you should be able loosen the latch on the door shut side on the chassis itself and drop it slightly to account for any hinge wear/play on the door itself. May slightly ruin the shut lines but it'll help

Thanks for your help. I will give that a go.
