Both inner and outer door handles now work as they should:

A window drop upon pulling the handle;
When the handle is released, the window stays dropped; and
When the door is closed, the window goes up and closes the gap

let's see if a little lubrication stick, I provide an update on this thread from time-to-time.
The switch in the lock mechanism is just a plastic cam, and wears incredibly quickly. I replaced both on mine with junkyard parts, because the M535 option meant they were $500 a pop from Porsche. Not economical.
