Door hitting skirt - Daniel306 - 05-01-2014

When i close either front door it just rubs on the skirt at the front near the wing, has anyone elce had this happen,

There are two way i could fit it, either cut out the offending bit of skirt or put a self taping screw in to hold it down

I take it you've retrofitted the skirts? If so how are they fixed? I'd try a self tapper to hold them down if they're flexing, but hide it under the seal so it's not on show. That's all I've done in mine! Wink


RE: Door hitting skirt - Daniel306 - 05-01-2014

yea there retrofitted, but iv seen originals that are close, mine have captive nuts in the sill then m6 bolts with penny washers holding them on

Wear trousers instead...

Seriously though, just stick a screw in there.

I had the same issue I slackened the bolts on the hinges and lifted the door up a few mm cleared it then and still shut fine Smile


RE: Door hitting skirt - Daniel306 - 05-01-2014

I fired to screws in it. Its just clearing it, dident really want to adjust the door as it lines up perfectly everywhere else

Is there any play in the door hinges mine lines up fine but the hinges are worn and rub a bit when you open close door


RE: Door hitting skirt - darrenjlobb - 06-01-2014

It the top of the door perfecly inline with the rear quarter top bit? If not then hinges have worn / need adjusting to raise door back up...this is normally the cause.

If not then the skirt must be high, so just screw it down!

Iv screwed it down and there is now clearance so it dose not take the paint off
