Door keeps locking itself

I have found that even when applying light pressure to close the door on my 2024 542, the door lock sometimes engages, and I can't get in the van. The catch is springing back beyond the centre and slightly engaging the lock.

Thankfully, I haven't been locked out, yet, but it's only a matter of time.

Has anyone found a solution to this issue?

Yes a number of us have faced this problem at odd occasions.

The first thing to do is precautionary get yourself a spare key (or even 2) cut. Then place this somewhere hidden and secure on the outside of the van. Then when this happens you always have a spare close at hand. Put it somewhere you can get to it easily.

I then lubricated the locking mechanism with silicon spay or something like so that it opens and shuts freely.

Hope this helps
