Raising Sliding Door

[Pete C]

I need to raise the sliding door by a couple of mm, as I can see that the bottom front edge is just touching the bodywork/sill as it closes.
Is there any micro adjustment mechanism, or do I just loosen the 3 spline bolts at the front of the bottom of the door, raise the door, then re-tighten them ?

Thanks,

Pete

Good evening Pete
Did you resolve this issue we, as my T6 is doing the exact same thing. I am sure how to adjust. It seems like it needs to go up by 2 mm

No I didn’t. I just found that shutting the door more gently stopped the issue re-occurring.

I'm sure that there must be some sliding door adjustment details in a VAG download somewhere.

can find any in the forum downloads.

Yes, you just loosen the bolts and physically move it. More details here: https://www.t6forum.com/threads/guide-how-to-remove-a-sliding-door-on-a-t6.22982/
