Sliding door adjustment?????

Post by KINGPRAWN »

I found quite a detailed thread on adjusting the sliding door but with reading it and having both bently and Haynes I'm still not getting very far! Recently had the van painted and ever since noticed that the rear has dropped by some 4/5 mm. Just noticed that the last bit of travel on the bottom in/out adjuster has started rubbing on the greasy lower channel bit( where all the grit collects). I need to lift it a tad but how? The door is also not truly square.. Top rear needs to come back 2/3 mm...just can't sus it!!
in too deep to quit now....
