For my 1991 synco, no. 10 on the diagram, a limit stop for sliding door, part number 251 843 876
If anyone knows a source (preferably new), it would be much appreciated. vwbusshop.de shows a picture of one on their website but they're not available.
No. 10 is made from a hard plastic. My one is missing and I think its why the sliding door keeps popping open when driving. I've knackered myself adjusting the door several times and now proper pissed off with it. I hope adding this part is the solution.
Any retail suggestions would be appreciated.

That won't be the cause of it popping open,it does as you know cause the hinge to commence turning softly but the security of the door is dependant on it correctly latching in the rear pin and the cables ad well as adjusment are correct, when and what had you done prior to this fault

Had a similar problem a few years ago. Lubricated the catch at the rear of door with WD40 and it solved the problem? Worth a try.

Cheers for the advice fellas,
A brief history
I replaced the vans accident damaged sliding door with a straight one last week.
A ratchet strap was holding the damaged door closed since I bought it.
The old doors damage was substantial and exactly where the rear catch sits, so my initial thought was that this makes the door pop open.
But, the new door does the same.
I will take your suggestions and have a play tomorrow, bloody thing.
