Drivers door hinge

[Keaney]

Noticed I have a leak on the drivers door which seems to catch when closing shut.

Suggestions on the forum are that it's the door hinge... Has anyone replaced this and fixed the issue?

Yep had this on my last Caddy and it's not necessarily a new hinge.

Given time and/or the door being snatched in a strong wind when you open it, the door 'drops' slightly pulling the bottom hinge which has elongated holes for adjustment.

With the door in a dropped position it fails to seal along the top edge.

Try slackening both hinges and easing the door upwards from the bottom so that the door fits squarely in the shut.

To be honest once the door had sagged I was forever readjusting it in the above manner.

I solved the problem by selling the van......
