Clunking noise coming from passenger door
Clunking noise coming from passenger door
Hey all
I've got a small issue with the front passenger door of my 08. Whenever I close it, it makes a clunking noise. Its almost like the latch is set too far out and the door is hitting it when it closes rather than closing into the seals. I don't really get any wind noise out of it, but every once in a while when its cold out, I can hear the seals vibrating. The rear of the door isn't really flush with the front of the rear door either. Has anybody else had this, and if so what was the fix? I'm thinking the latch just needs to be brought in a little bit, but the guy at the dealer said there was no adjustment to it. I find that hard to believe as I've done the very same adjustment to many other cars of varrying makes and models. He also said that he made an adjustment to it, but I couldn't tell any difference. And that if the problem persisted, they'd have to put it in the body shop so I'd be without a car for a few days. That's just not going to work for me.
