Door Auto - Close Malfunction

Anyone else having a problem with their driver door not auto closing? It is the most heavily used of all doors, and it was bound to go out.

Thanks for the reply.

I had a rear door begin to do that...I lubricated the hinges and piston and it seems fine now...I think it was not quite closing far enough to trigger the auto close function...if that is different than your symptoms, you may need better help than me....

I have the same problem....

do you have keyless go? With keyless go, my car doesn't completely shutdown after i close my door.

Here's my related thread a few days ago. Just called the dealer and they the drive side latch system cost $461 . According to WIS in order to remove it, we have to drill out some panels that are riveted onto the door shell. Sounds like a daunting DIY job and I wonder if it's the latch system or the control module.
