Why won't my Audi's door close properly?

Help or advice for 2003 Audi A6 please: front door not closing properly. Will close by being extremely gentle. Any other action leaves door not fully closed.

Hi Mícheál,

This kind of thing is always difficult to analyse from afar so unless you're used to DIY on your car it's best you take it to a mechanic you trust. It sounds like the catch on either the lock on the door or the B-pillars themselves is not aligned properly. The lock may be damaged too of course.

Let us know how you get on.
