Bongo side door alignment
Posted: Wed Jul 17, 2024 4:10 am
My brother has finally come down the 1,000km trip to my house.
(Thanks again to everyone who helped troubleshooting his limp mode issues. Turns out one of the vacuum hoses was connected to the wrong thing / didn't go to where it was supposed to.)
OK, so, new issue. Side door alignment. The door seems to have dropped down and doesn't align properly anymore (pictures attached).
I've already had a look at it, loosened the bolts on the bottom of the door and lifted the door and re tightened, but it seemed to make no difference.
Could that lower bracket have bent too much causing the door to drop like this, and if so, can I just remove it from the vehicle, bend it out a bit, then put it back in so the door sits higher? Or is this a different problem entirely?
