Mac Pro DVD drive door sticking problems...

Hi all...

The aluminum drive door on one of my Mac Pro's 2 DVD drives sticks in the open ("down") position about 9 times out of 10 when in use. It has done this since I received it from Apple. Not a functional issue at all, so I didn't even think about sending it back at the time of arrival, thinking it might be just a bit stiff and "new"...

Now, over time, it has begun to get more annoying. I have tried everything in order to get it to work, sometimes seeming to have it fixed, but it ALWAYS returns to the "original state" of "stickiness"!!! Again, not a huge problem, but I'd like to get it seen about and figure out how to fix it once and for all. Anyone else having the same problem? I cannot take my Mac out of service, and this seems like such a simple thing...

G4 PB, Intel MBP 2.16, G5 2.0 DP 4 GB, Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.4.8)
