Default 1989-90 Xj6/ Xj40 Door latching issues.

Hello, I'm new to this site and looking for help with tips and tricks for working on my Jag. Currently I'm having issues with the door latching mechanism. I was also wondering what type of lubricant to use, what is most ideal? for example: White lithium grease, graphite powder or some other ideal lubricant? Problematic door latch.

Hello, Chris,
I use spray Lubri-Plate (white lithium) on all my door mechanisms and hinges!
