For anyone that's interested, I've spent the last 3 hours removing my Door Locks because I decided to give them a squirt of liquid Lithium Grease.
I obviously hadn't learnt my lesson from yesterday, where I had to remove my Door Checks because greasing them made them worse. :mad: :mad:

The Lock movement was slightly rough, but once again all the damn Lithium grease seemed to do was push away the proper grease that was there. And to top it off, once I put proper grease from a tub into it, the spring broke :mad: :mad: :mad: . But I managed to bend it so that it works again.

I did however, use that chance to swap the L & R door locks because the Driver's one had a bit of a problem with my Copied Key.

Oh well, as a person once said:
"Experience is directly proportional to damage caused".....got lots of experience this week :)

Tom, sometimes, some jobs that you have done 100 times before can go pear shaped from the time you start. I now find it easier to go away and do it another day. On a good day everything is easy, its a lot of work that you have undertaken, good luck,things will get better.
