passenger door has dropped

[doey106]

my passenger door has dropped and i cant figure out how to adjust it? All there is 2 pins that hold it onto the hinges am i being stupid?? Lol

[Jon_nova1]

Never figured it myself, no doubt Haynes will tell you, are the pins worn/bent?

Is there play when you lift the door up and down?

[doey106]

nah they look in good order baffled lol

[doey106]

yeah a little but u hav really got to push it hard

[brainsnova]

try new pins first but my last nova door had play at the hinge part attached to the door. you could alway remove the wing and reweld the hinge to the door if this is the case.

wheres the best place to get pins? My 3 local vauxhall dealers dont want nothing to do with my car lol

[brainsnova]

Mine did this, I just opened the door fully then lifted the door a few times until it was straight when closed.
