Door, adjusting

For proper door adjustment, door hinge must be loosened
at pillar. Other measures, such as aligning door upward,
are not effective. Excess pressure thereafter will again
cause door to sag.

For this, Door adjusting wrench 3320 with Box spanner
3320/2 must be used.

If it should be necessary that door hinge must be loosened
at B-pillar from inside, Socket insert 3410 can be used. To
do so, lower B-pillar trim must be removed
