ooooerrr missus I'm having back door problems !!!!.
If I shut the rear door to it will close ok, and lock but if i pull it I can still pull it open abt 1/2 - 1 cm. Is there any way of getting to to shut and hold firm against the boot opening , or is the play normal ?.
Cheers ears , Tony

Re: wonky back door.
Have you checked to see if the latch & striker plate are bolted up tight? If they are try a bit of grease on the latch mechanism in case it's not locking fully.
