Daston Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Hey guys Just parked the car up and noticed my drivers door dosnt seem to shut fully. It locks and shuts enough to hold the door closed but it sticks out from the rear quater. Never noticed it until now. Is there anything I can do about this or does the door need to come off and be reset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supragold Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Just need to move the latch on the car in a little. IIRC the latch on the door doesn't have any play so its the one on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Right i checked the repair manuals (can't believe i didn't check before ) The procedure is: remove the plastic cover with a flat bladed screw driver to reveal the 2 torx bolts (t30) Loosen said bolts and tap the mechanism with a bar. I didn't do this i loosened off the 2 torx bolts and just pushed the latch a few mm further back then tightened up, you may have to do a bit of trial and error to sit it flush again. Pop the cover back on and job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
