As the oasis procedure says, actuation by opening/closing the hood will eventually work the lube in and smooth the action. I am like you. I hate slamming hoods. That is why I use the ratchet extension to actuate the mechanism.My drivers side was also sticky. I had to drop the hood from over a foot in the air to get it to latch.
I HATE slamming hoods, even my wife noticed and asked what was going on.
I applied some non-aerosol liquid silicone lube to the depressed button and let it soak through.
Hood will now latch by pressing down with hand. Dropping from 4" closes and leaves no hand prints.
