Re: [bmw] [bmw e28] Door hanging procedure?

[Robert Chase <beostar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Don't know about BMW's but my Mercedes has the same problem.  I tried 
adjusting the striker plate and the door seems to close a little better 
however it now leaks air into the car.  If you do make adjustments do 
them slowly.  Im still messing around with mine.
