Strange one here & wonder if anyone else has had this - a cursory search didn't yield any results...

The exterior passenger door handle on my zed has become a bit erratic. After being left for a few hours it doesn't want to open from the outside. You pull the handle and it pulls up quite a way before hitting a resistance but it doesn't unlatch the door.
If I then open the door using the interior handle the door will now open and close correctly and the outer handle works fine.

Leave it a few hours, and it stops working again....

Any ideas?
