How do you align the driver door to my 2002 GMC Envoy It rattles and hear road and wind noise Thanks?

Answer 1

Usually you adjust the striker bolt or loop thing on the inside of the door opening. It is what the door latch connects to. There will usually be either one big bolt or a loop kind of thing with two bolts. loosen the bolt\bolts and slide it towrd the inside of the vehicle( to tighten up the door.) If this doesnt work then the hinge bolts can be loosened and the door adjusted up or down to get the proper fit. If you try this just loosen the hinge bolt just enough to slightly move the door up and down then retighten and try it. Usually takes several times (trial and error.) The last thing to try is to slightly "tweek" the door at the top side of it. This means that you actually "bend" the door slightly to get better fit. This is actually a pretty common practice when repairing wrecked autos. Another thing to check is to make sure that your molding around the door is properly seated and in good shape. This can cause "wind" noise also. Hope this helps.
