Ducato side door adjustment
Message:
Can anyone help? The side door on my 2002 ducato does not seem to fit at the top rear. It leaks a bit and if I push gently on the door from inside I can see a gap between door and seal.
Is it adjustable. I have yet to set too on it due to the snow so any guidance before it start most welcome.
Many thanks

Ducato what Willy?
That's the base vehicle, but to offer any advice we need to know what make and model of motorhome it is. There is no indication in the data below your non-avatar.
I presume you mean the habitation door, and if it's like ours the adjustment is minimal - to say the least. I just had ours fixed by the dealer (during a hab check) for the same reason as you, and he "leaned on it a bit at the top".
That appears to be the technical term for grabbing the door edge and bending it a bit - our Seitz door is built around an aluminium frame it seems.
I am not necessarily recommending this strategy (in case it comes off in your hand!!
) but it seems that's the way it is done in the trade.

It is a timberland van conversion, so the door is the original large steel sliding door, not a small bendable door as in a coach built so bending is not really an option!
There is a single fixingat the rear that I think may be moveable
