V70 Door Removal and Refitting
I've damaged both passenger doors on my 2008 V70 (don't ask! . And I think it's going to be cheaper to replace both doors with second hand ones in the same colour.
Has anybody removed and refitted these doors? Is it a job I can do on my own? I've looked at the Haynes manual, which talks about needing a special Volvo tool (9501080) to adjust the door hinges when refitting. It advises to go to a Volvo dealer to get the alignment done- is this necessary? Any tips would be appreciated... Thanks in advance |

Youtube to the rescue
Well happily I can answer my own question.
Whilst looking at another video mentioned in a post on here on the excellent Youtube volvosweden channel, I noticed this video; Repairing Door hinges and electrical connector between door and body. Must check on Volvo P3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kfnhy0nCaRA And he shows how to remove and refit one of the front doors! Hope that helps someone. |
