In my experience this is pre-failure. It's sufficient justification to a dealer for extended warranty replacement (front passenger in my case). As mentioned in my previous post, if it gets stuck locked at some point when you lock from the remote, you're in for a real treat to get that door open again.

If you've got a slow actuator I would at the very least open everything and try to DIY some lubrication if you're out of warranty to see if it helps.
