Side window mechanism faulty

[Pure Worktop Protection]

Hi - advice please on an issue I have with side window on the sliding door of my T6. It’s not been locating into the closed position very well and I’ve noticed that the springs inside the cover plates above and below the catch are distorted and pushing the covers off. I’ve removed the covers to see if it’s a simple fix, but can’t see anything obvious other than the springs and the sockets they sit in are distorted.
Has anyone any experience of this and how to fix?

If you google, there’s a video of a chap repairing the window springs.... think it’s a T5 but it should help.

I have of getting the window to close on the kitchen side. It is often reluctant to go in all the way for some reason and often sends several goes pushing the window along quite forcefully.
