Adjust door tension
Does anyone know how to adjust the door tension/stiffness.

My doors close too easily, I can be on a slight hill and the doors won’t stay open - I can’t count how many times the door has closed on myself and passengers when they’re trying to get out of the car!

It’s really annoying and didn’t happen with my W205 so I’m sure it’s not right!

Thanks in advance!

Got the same problem. Dealer was going to send to bodyshop and have new hinges... we said we'd live with it.

Ah ok thanks for that

Seems a bit daft, my dads BMW has an adjuster to stiffen the door!
