Hi Guys,
the toilet door on our troll is very slightly mis aligned, making the catch not work smoothly ( catch works fine when door open) and it seems to get worse now and then, I have looked and can't see a way of aligning it to to keep it aligned as the side panel is not fixed to the panel the other side of the door.

my question is, is this normal, or is there an easy fix??

would appreciate any advice

cheers
Rob

Same with ours. Dealer sorted it out at the first service although there's nothing visible so no idea what he actually did to fix it.

I hesitate to offer anyone any techie advice but will say that sticking doors are not confined to Eribas. My solution was to loosen the door lock - it can get too tight and refuse to open. Do not know if this is the problem for you VWfamilyman but I have done this several times in the past and it worked.....Hope I am not giving you a bum steer

Best wishes

I've seen thin washers used under one of the hinges, not on Eriba's admittedly but can't see any reason why a bit of improvisation would'nt overcome the problem

thank you guys, seems to be the consensus that it is generally a caravan thing then, at least i will know if the van is level, by the toilet door then

I might put a strut across above the door, we are all shorties in our family so won't really be a problem, lol

Maybe, if you get the van level, the problem might resolve itself............ Ian.

or perhaps learn to whistle?

Too much enthusiasm with the corner steadies (they are to steady, NOT jack up to level the caravan)
will cause the misaligned door syndrome. Levelling with the jockey wheel and a levelling ramp or
other aid is the way to go. Steadies should just touch the ground gently but firmly.

Aarrr, that I be my lil buttercup
