1. Bracket of built-in door parts. Size "a" = 5 mm + 1.5 mm. Adjust size "a" using the auxiliary template. Size "b" = 5 mm. 2 mm. Size "c" = 9.5 mm±1 mm. Size "d" = 8.5 mm±1 mm (distance to pillar B)
2. Door glass. Size "b" = 5 mm. 2 mm. To check size "b" completely close the glass (insert into the door seal). Mark the lower edge of the door seal on the glass with a thin felt-tip pen. Open the glass and measure the dimension "b" from the upper edge of the glass to the mark made with the felt-tip pen
3. Pillar cover C. Dimension "e" = 15.5 mm±1 mm, dimension "f" = 9 mm±1 mm
4. Front door. Dimension "g" = 31 mm±1 mm. Can only be measured with the door trim removed
Making an auxiliary template
Make an auxiliary template according to the given dimensions, for example from plastic or plywood. Dimension "a" = 5 mm, dimension "b" = approx. 30 mm. With the correct adjustment of the bracket of the built-in door parts, the template should fit against the door glass as well as the roof strip, while being at a distance of approx. 100 mm from the B-pillar.
Front door hinges
1. Bolt Torg, 30 Nm. Accessible from inside the car. Before unscrewing, it is necessary to remove the lower trim of the A-pillar.
2. Upper door hinge
3. Bolt Tough, 30 Nm
4. Bolt Torg, 30 Nm. Accessible from inside the car. Before unscrewing, it is necessary to remove the lower A-pillar trim.
5. Bottom door hinge
6. Bolt Tough, 30 Nm
7. Front door
Joint width
The rear door must be adjusted. Dimension "A" = 3.5 mm±0.5 mm, dimension "B" = 4 mm±0.5 mm, dimension "C" = 3.5 mm±0.5 mm. Check the joint width using the installation template "3371". The gap size or joint width can be adjusted by loosening the hinge bolts and moving the doors.
Adjustment using the lock bracket
There are marks on the lock bracket or on the B-pillar, by which you can precisely adjust the door. Loosen bolts "2". Move the lock bracket "1" so that the door is level with the contour of the body. Tighten the bolts. Tightening torque 20 Nm. Adjustment is permitted only in the direction towards the center of the car, and not in height.
