got a small amount of water after rain right in the back of the disco. 100% rear door seal as I can see it not crushing down on closure. There are plenty of seals out there but as usual just want to know which is the best buy/fitment.
silly but essential question. When you say adjust the hinges, as far as I can see each hinge has 3 bolts held in with washers. Is there adjustment on these hinges (i.e the holes for the bolts are big enough for adjustment) or is there another trick?
I'm essentialy looking to make the door sit closer onto the seal.
Overadjusting the hinges might reduce the latch actuator's life, there is an ''official'' fix for this issue cos it might be a fabrication error, see attachment
