Adjusting door

Adjusting shut lines
To be able to adjust shut lines correctly, bolts -2-, -3-, -6-and -7- in A-pillar must be loosened.
–  In order to gain access to bolt -3- on driver side, detach fuse box, and lower it → Electrical system; Rep. gr.97.
–  In order to gain access to bolt -3- on front passenger side, remove glove compartment → General body repairs, interior; Rep. gr.68.
–  For loosening bolt -6-, lower A-pillar trim must be removed → General body repairs, interior; Rep. gr.70.
Adjusting for flush fitting
In order to adjust flushness correctly, bolts -5- and -9- must be loosened.
Use door alignment tool -3320- with appropriate bit for this.
  Note
Other measures, such as raising the front door, will prove pointless. Subsequent pressure from above will cause the door to sack again at the front.
