08 Aston Martin Vantage V8 When doors are opened on either side they won't stay open. I know the doors run uphill but my wife has terrible time getting in and out with doors trying to shut themselves

Thanks. I didn't know if it was normal. You call them "door stays"? I'm under warranty but I have to drive 4 hours to closest dealer. Figure I can spend the day in Charlotte if he has the parts. Thanks Frank smile

Don't see any struts? Approximate location? Thanks Frank

You are exactly right. Called dealer and had in stock, install Friday and surprisingly only $552 for both doors. Warranty item anyway. So have to be there by 1pm Warranty authorized rental so I guess I'll take my bud and go from Va Beach to Greensboro and have some good Carolina Bar-B-Que. Thanks for the advise. Franksmilesmile
