Whenever it has been wet, and then the temperatures drop below freezing, I cannot get my doors to latch! I can unlock them, I can open the doors, but no matter how many times I try, or how hard I slam, teh door will not stay shut. It never happens in cold, dry weather, nor if the precipitation falling is already frozen. Only when it has been wet, and then drops below freezing.
This has been a problem on every VW I've had. I've tried WD-40, graphite, tri-flow, you name it on the lath ( not the handle, but the latch mechanism)
HOw can I prevent this? I missed an important meeting this AM because I couldn't get the F%^&ing door to close!
Thanks!
