   Noticed today that my passenger will not shut right. when its shut you can see daylight though the gap. Its where the red is on the pic but on passenger side.
   
   
   
   Any ideas what it could be ???
   
   Thanks

   its called a bent door,probably caused by an attempted break in or theft, door tops are as flimsy as hell on most cars and a favourite access point for scrotes to get their thieving scummy chavvy smack infested hands in and pop the door pins up

   may well be, if its dropping as well you could have badly worn hinge pins or the hinge has cracked away from the door pillar,not exactly uncommon on saxos

   You can wind the window down and try bending it back but be careful and make sure you know the correct direction
