Anyone? :)

There bolts on the hinges are usually adjustable, be careful and only very slightly slacken them or you'll end in a right mess of the door crashing into the wing... been there done that never again!

Do you have a pic of all the bolts that are for adjusting? :) I'm going to do it with a jack with car sponge or some rubber so it wont drop off

Just had a look at my door and there is a black plastic lug on top hinge, remove this and there is a 6mm bolt, lift
Door up and tighten that up failing that apparently it's a new hinge job, check if the hinge has play in, ie you can lift door up and down on the pin.

The ones right on the top there? And those are just a comparison of left and right door so you can see how much its dropped, there is no play in it though

[jonathanfenton]

Ah well if it's just dropped and you can't rock it then try to slightly slacken one of the top bolts and bolts from hinge to door but minutely but be warned it'll go worse before you get it something like right as it's not just up and down its top in bottom out and moves in all directions friggin ball ache

[Anchco]

Yeah haha seems like it but it will get rid of the whispering wind noise though so it won't be bad when its done :)

Watch the wing! Just carefully offer up the door to the car do not try to close it normally! Patience is a virtue with doors
