    Hi guys, Recently my drivers side doors upper hinge has started to break away from the body. How do i get it fixed? is it simply a case of finding somewhere to weld it or is it more complicated?

    Thanks.

    Yeah i've seen it happen on a couple Saxos.

    Just get it welded back up.. Make sure its aligned properly though.

    common problem, get it welded,easier with wing off, make sure hinge hasn't siezed as thats usually what causes it

    happened to my 106 door when i was 17.

    it got to the point where i had to lift the door to close it. £40 to weld it up iirc. front wing usually has to come off to gain access.
