How to Adjust Car Door

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Car door

Tools required: caliper and inverted T40 torx key. The procedure involves measuring the door misalignment, i.e., the misalignment between the front and rear doors. Use a caliper to measure this misalignment, which in this example is 1.4mm. Locate the door lock and mark its original position with tape, loosen it using the T40 torx (or the original bolt, which may differ), and slightly move it up or down. Tighten the bolts and check if the door has regained alignment. If not, repeat the process until satisfactory alignment is achieved.
