Driver door sag - howto fix?

[50lbsofsalt]

2013 Q7. Driver door is sagged at the handle side by about 1/8 to 3/16" when closed

Hinges seem to not have much play up and down.

Whats the best approach to adjust? remove drivers kick panel and move fuse box to get to lower hinge bolts?

I just did this 2 days ago with 2 washers, my floor jack, and a torx bit with 1/4" mini ratchet. It took less than 10 minutes, probably under 5.

‐---------

Place the vehicle on level ground.

Open the door fully.

Place a piece of wood between the jack pad and the door bottom.

Jack up until it barely holds the weight.

Loosen both bolts. (Don't remove yet)

Remove one bolt and place the washer between the door and the hinge.

Reinstall the bolt, but do not tighten yet.

Repeat for the second bolt.

Tighten both.

Lower jack.

Test.

You may need to adjust the thickness of the washers.

Here is a link to the ratchet I used to fit in the spot.

There are more refined ways to do this. (More money, more work)
Here is a video with options, and it's pretty funny. (Not mine)
