Hi Jim
May will be a sticking solenoid (as on my car), its located inside an access panel just behind the seat. WD40 or replacement needed.

I had exactly this problem with my driver's door.

The 3 allen-key bolts that hold the door latch mechanism in the wheel arch thingumybob (technical or wot )had worked lose and the latch could move about. This caused the door to stick sometimes.

Simply re-aligning the latch and tightening up the bolts solved the problem.

Let's hope this is the problem and nothing else more complicated.
