Hey Dan - I'm familiar with that of which you speak - both
my '86 and my 16v passenger doors have a similar trait. 
The difference being that if you push in on the door
slightly, the latch will work easily.  I've tried
lubrication and striker adjustment to no avail, and so far
have to live with the problem.

Anybody else have a solution?
