Rear passenger door

Hi all,

My REAR passenger door lock is playing me up! Most of the time it cannot be opened from the outside when unlocking via the remote-the outside handle pulls up with no purchase like its still locked. But it can be opened from the inside using the handle. Once this is done you can then open the door via the outside handle.

Before anyone screams at me to 'DO A SEARCH', I have already!!!, and found these problems only relating to FRONT doors, not REARS!! I have already taken the trim off and had a look at the lock (what you can see of it), tried WD40 etc, but no difference-so it will want replacing, unless of course someone knows another remedy...?

I managed to unbolt the lock from the door no problem, but does anyone know how to remove the lock as I could not see a way of getting my hand in there to even release the bowden cable etc.. It is an extremely small area to get into , only a small child or a contortionist would be able to I'm sure..!

Any help, or suggestions would be better than what I already know. Thanks, Ian
