Re: Can't lock door unless I push in
I had the same "problem" with my truck for years. Doors aligned dang near perfect, strikers good... but always had to push a little on DS and PS to get door to lock with key (but would be fine if you pushed latch down from inside).
A few months ago I shut the door and heard parts burst all over the place... So I bought a new DS and PS latch. I did nothing other than install the new latch and slightly adjust the striker to match it. Haven't had to push on the door since, it goes right down with an easy turn of the key. I still have to do the PS, but I'm expecting the same result.
