probs with side (sliding) door

Post by babbalex » Sun May 06, 2007 5:32 pm

don't mind asking, cos after all i am only a woman! lol, its just that not having used the side door for a while, yesterday after putting some shopping in the side door, when i went to close it, it shut, but without the final gliding sound and had to give it a good sling? to get it shut properly!!, Is it just me ? (please be gentle with me lol) #-o

hi Babbalex, i have experienced this too, a quick clean of the contacts with a WD40'd cloth solved it for me

I'm probably being silly, but would the runners benefit from a little lubrication maybe?

Yep spray mine regularly with grease to help runners, when mine stopped it was the fuse but it could be the dreaded loom thru the drivers door too, if it is connected that way, good luck. Happy motoring.
