The passenger side door on the wifes Tamora seems to have dropped slightly and is rubbing on the body work just above the strike plate. Could somebody describe how to fix this?

Thanks in Advance,

Dave C

Ow do.

Undo the bolt with a peg spanner. When it is loose you can move it about. If you lower its position then tighten back up it should raise the door a bit.

Might take a bit of trial and error.

I can show you Sunday.

It is the brass door latch. The bit on the door rather than the body. There are two holes in the round plate bit that the peg spanner goes in.

I see now. However, I think the problem is with the hinges rather than the latch.

I think we are going to have to start a South-yorks TVR bring and repair service after the last few meets, it could be my turn soon.
