Sliding door rattle

Hello I'm new here, wonder if anyone can help please.
My sliding door rattles when it's closed, going along or stationary if you wiggle it.
I cant really see what to adjust to stop it doing that.
Any ideas?
Thanks

welcome slowrunner
first we need the year of your van as the doors changed completely in later vans

Hi
It's a 1987 model and its beige coloured with a 1.9 petrol engine, but beyond that.............

A late slider then
there are three points of adjustment but I would start with the striker post on the door pillar (rear)
undo it and move the post inwards if you can
what condition is the door seal in?
is it rattling/loose at the front or the back of the door?

Cant' see a door seal.
Maybe that's why it rattles a bit then

Do you know where to get one?

or there's Billy739 on here for a second hand one
