Door hinges have loose - problem solved!

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Loosen the lower hinge and put a narrow wedge behind it and then tighten up .

Good idea :hopping: The doors will be little bit higher and will not hamper the door lock.

Thanks Jim :!:
