Hi all,

The missus has a 206CC and the passenger door is really hard to open - it has been like this since we bought it a few months ago.

The previous (first) owner did take it back to Peugeot to be looked at when they had it, but the problem was never fixed.

I think the cause is the large block of black rubber that sits at what would be the base of the B-pillar (apart from it doesn't have a B-pillar), on the rear 3/4 panel and meets the top of the door. The door looks aligned correctly, panel gaps are straight and even, and I know it's not crash damage as it's never had an accident.

Anyone else had this issue? The door can still be opened, but needs a really good tug to do so. Is this a common problem? Anyone know a fix?

Cheers!
