Two annoying problems..., Driver's door and Sway Bars Options

[cnavarro]

I've been driving my 914 alot the last few weeks and I have two problems. It seems that the driver's door when it opens up, drops a little....requiring half the time that I actually roll the window down a tad so that the glass doesn't catch when I go to open up the door. Similar scenario when I go to open the door, the glass catches again unless I lift the door slightly when opening. Is this an adjustment to the door hinges that needs to be made?

Secondly, it seems that the sway bar (or) some suspension component on the driver's rear makes an annoying tok tok tok when you go over bumps and is really bad when driving on gravel roads.

Any suggestions?

Rear sway bar bushings are known to disconnect themselves when the bushings get old. Get new bushings and pop them in. Quick easy fix.

The door thing is odd. Worst case scenerio is that there's rust in the longs causing the chassis to flex. Haven't ever heard of door hinges getting sloppy on these cars. I suppose if someone liked to sit on their door while it was open. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)
