Z3 Doors

I am having issues with my drivers door in that sometimes it will not open. Eventually I am able to open it by pushing it inwards whilst lifting the handle at the same time. Anyone had similar issues and know of a cure?

Sounds like a door alignment problem the adjustment is on the keep on the b post it needs to be moved towards the outside of the car slightly so the door isn't closing so tight.

Funny that! Mine played up four times yesterday, and I managed to open the door each time after locking/unlocking a couple of times and putting a bit of downward pressure on the door. It'd never done that before and hasn't since...
Might have to eventually adjust the door, then.

Frequently just a lack of lubrication.
