I have a 1996 V40. The rear doors will not shut properly. The lock does not locate properly in the catch such that even when the door appears to be shut the door can be pushed open from the inside. The locks mechanisms appear to work okay. I took them out, and oiled all the mechanisms etc. I cannot adjust the catches because they are screwed in incredibly tightly and I am scared of stripping the allen key heads. I am trying to adjust the door hinges, but without much success. Very frustrated. Can't use the car for fear of arriving to find all the kids have fallen out on the way. Any advice would be really really appreciated. This is my first posting, and I am a bit desperate.
Thanks
