Special Tools, Testers And Auxiliary Items Required







- Template T40038
- Use the door adjustment template Template T40038 as described in the following for testing (e.g. for wind noises) and for adjusting door.







Testing sealing lip/roof trim molding contact
- Using a standard bank card, drive off contact area of sealing lip to roof trim molding with light pressure.
- When doing this, card must not sink in between sealing lip - 1 - and roof trim molding - 2 -.







- Template has points of different lengths at - arrows a - and - arrows b - so that side adjustment of door can be tested.
- The upper point - arrow a - on the side with the cut-out - arrow c - at bottom is the longer side (max. marking).
- This side is used to check whether the window frame is located too far outward in relation to the chassis.







- Position template at dimension - a - = 200 mm and with cut-out - arrow - facing door window.
- Make sure that points - 1 - and - 3 - make contact.
- At point - 2 - of template, there must be a gap.
- In this position (max), doors are adjusted to farthest outward point within tolerance range.
- If there is no gap at point - 2 -, or there is a gap at point - 1 -, the window frame is set too far outward and must be adjusted.







- The upper point - arrow b - opposite the side with cut-out - arrow c - at bottom is the shorter side (min. marking).
- This side is used to check whether the window frame is located too far inward in relation to the chassis.
- Position template at dimension - a - = 200 mm and with cut-out - arrow - turned away from door window as depicted in magnified areas of illustration.







- Make sure that points - 2 - and - 3 - make contact on door window.
- At point - 1 - of template, there must be a gap.
- In this position (min), doors are adjusted to farthest inward point within tolerance range.
- If point - 1 - has no gap, or if template cannot be brought into contact at point - 2 -, window frame is set too far inward and must be adjusted.
