Doh, finally realised why the drivers door is a bit difficult to close, looks like new hinges or pins ? Time .
Are the parts available and is it an easy fix ?

Also drivers window is very slow, it was returned to HR Owens @ 6 odd weeks old for this, how do the door cards come off ? Thanks in advance .

Probably just needs tightening up BUT do it before the bolt comes fully out or your door'll fall off!

Speaker out, arm in the hole and bolt does up.

Window motor cables can be got to through here as well. Problem with the slow windows is usually loss of voltage due to the thin wires elading from the switch to the motor. There's a kit available (modwise?) to take power directly to the window motor or makeup your own for a couple of quid like I did) but you have to get a thicker wire to the motor...

Had same problem with slow windows and found the glass in both doors had slipped out of the rear guide channel probably when someone had slammed the door shut.Speed was improved after spraying silicone on the channels.
