GL450 RR door lock
Hello,
I have a 2013 GL450 that I have noticed the the door lock does not work on the right rear door. The lock works as in the locked/unlocked indicator does go up and down but in order to have the lock actually "lock" I have to press down on the indicator with a small bit of force (it moves about 2 mm). Is this just a lubrication issue or is a new actuator needed? If either is the case is there a guide I could refer to? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Fairly common issue. Likely needs a new actuator. Mine had this problem and it was fixed on an aftermarket warranty.
