Well, yesterday it stopped closing fully and would just fall open again.
I had to remove the door trim and the stowage box mounting cabinet from the door trim. It was evident that one of the two pegs that engages with the damping/closing mechanism had broken off the box, the other one was half broken off and held by it's internal wire reinforcement.
I had to replace each peg with a chunky furniture screw and re-grease the mechanism.
If anyone else needs to take the door trim off, you WILL need
12 x 6Q0868241 door trim clip
as these are one time use only and squash and lock together on install.
They don't shatter like on other cars, they don't work at all a second time.
