Car door caught in the wind



  BG Clio 182
Opened my driver;s side door today and ripped out of my hand as i was getting out the car, the door got caught in a gust of wind and got pulled back rather violently seemed to spring right back i couldn't stop it in time.

And now when i close the door it sounds like its rubbing on something as it closes it doesn't feel like it closes properly feels like a bit of movment as i close it, any idea's as to a fix is it something quite straight forward to sort???

Sounds like its near the bottom no obvious signs as the door lines up when closed no problem. Will have to try and get a better look in daylight trying to look at it in the dark with a torch wasn't easy.

Just hope its an easy fix and not to expensive ideally.

Should be able to loosen the hinges and adjust the door.
It's happened to mine before and that's how I fixed it. Need to do the other side since passenger door flew out of my missus hand the other week.

Try it yourself. Between two people it should be easily manageable, as long as you haven't bent anything.

Took it to my local garage wasn't confident enough to try it, took him all of a couple of minutes, all sorted thank goodness.
