Beech 200 Emergency Door problem

We have been experiencing a problem with our Kingair 200. During pressurised flight the emergency hatch handle moves towards the open position by about one inch, and during the decent and subsequent depressurisation the handle pops to the fully open position.

The mechanism itself is very solid, having a strong spring and needing positive pressure to open and close on the ground. Our local engineers looked at the problem and did not know what was causing the problem.

Any ideas? Thanks
