Passenger Door 1/2" pushed in
Ok, so I just noticed a couple weeks ago that my passengers side door is about 1/2" offset from the front quarter panel. What I mean is it looks like it was pushed in, yet I can't find anywhere on the door or the hinge that shows it being moved/damaged/dented in. It runs the entire height of the door on the front side only. There doesn't seem to be any rub spots, so I am confused as to what could have caused this. Any ideas would be helpful, and once I get back to the states from this deployment I am on I will do more investigating.
Thanks
Thanks

If I'm reading this correctly I had the same problem. Open the door and look behind the hinge and see if you can spot a bolt that's holding the front qtr panel and loosen it. You can push the panel in some then tighten the bolt to keep it in place.

I will see if someone who is watching my stuff can take a pic and send it to me. I am currently deployed for some stupid stuff going on and don't really know when I will get back.

My door looks almost exactly like 99FormulaM6r's except the bottom trim panel isn't pushed in and the entire door where it swings is in 1/2". I guess when I get back to the US I will take it to a body shop to see if they can find out what it it.
