yes I know the suntour isn't the best fork,but its being doing the job,recently the remote lockout has stopped functioning properly,wondering if this might be a cartridge issue,bike is less than 6 months old though,,ive tightened cable to no avail took cap off lockout and added grease to no avail,the suspension locks out when pressing button but doesn't unlock ,I need to manually pull the end of the cable attached to the lockout to make it unlock or alternatively wait about 5 minuites and it seems to slowly slide itself over time into the unlock position,hence why I added some grease to lube it

Sounds like the cable is sticky, easy enough to test by removing the cable and seeing what it does without the cable drag.
