Passenger door slightly open (still locks)

[Palmer291]

Hi everyone,

I noticed a few days ago that my passenger door looked like it hasn't been closed properly. I checked it and shut it again but it didn't sit flush with the seal. The door still locks, but when driving I can hear wind noise and outside noises louder than usual which obviously means it hasn't shut properly.

Anyone know what this might be? I can't post pictures just yet as I'm currently at work, but I can supply some if needed later on.

The seal looks intact and the rubber around the door seems fine too.

You might need to adjust the staple (the loop on the B pillar) to pull the door tight.

I agree the loop has moved.
loosen off the torx bolts a touch and tap with hammer gently
Close door re adjust or tighten up.

You're both geniuses! I never even thought of checking that.

Thanks both, I've got it fixed now. Didn't need to tape it with a hammer as the bracket was pretty much hanging off. The torx screws were pretty much hanging off and extremely loose.

Thanks very much for your help, you've saved me!

Pleasure, glad you've got it sorted
