Post by: rench on 12 August 2014, 22:25

My drivers side doors clonking every time I open or shut the door, it coming from the bottom hinge. ive tried greasing it up but didn't make any difference. any one had same problem is it fixable or new hinge needed?

I had a similar issue and it turned out that the bolts in the bottom hinge were loose, if you're lucky they might just need tightening up?
