I presume the adjustment can be done with the mechanism still attached to the door.

Strangely the door handle is now opening the door again even though I've not adjusted anything yet.
Just prise the clip open with a small flat bladed screwdriver while still attached to the other parts. I had to replace a door handle on my daughter's Tourer about a month ago and then after, re-position the threaded rod a few threads until the handle opened with ease.

Even if it opens now, you can be sure at the next MoT it won't
