    to open one of my rear doors I have to push the door in then carefully squeeze the handle. I have replaced the door handle before on this side. I can see that the handle does not move the latch much so can I adjust it somehow?

    no adjustment on factory handles, take em off and lube up everything that moves in the handle and the latch plates in the hole the handle came from. that should sort it. if you have crappy aftermarket handles -> bin -> fit gen vag ones. even 2nd hand often better than brand new pattern ones.
