Loose Door Hinges,
« on: 07 February 2008, 13:51 »
Does anyone know the correct tool to tighten the hinges on a mrk4

Both driver and passanger door a little lose, VW want to chagre £20 to tighten, I bought the correct fitting to do this but it will not fit between the gap in the door,

Has anyone come across this before?

No it hasn't dropped, I suppose it could if its not tightened, but when the door is open there is a lot of play in the hinge, you can feel the bolts are slighty loose. I just havent got the right tool to tighten them and begrudge paying money just for someone to tighten 4 bolts.
