Passenger door binding!
I have had this happening for a while now. The passenger door, right before you get ready to swing it shut, it binds, makes a pop and then swings closed. Anyone know how to fix this?

Re: Passenger door binding! (jawski)
Fixed it :).
This is what you need to do. Get a can of WD40 or your favorite lube. Open both doors all the way. At the VERY base of the hinge you'll see a black coiled spring under the lowest hinge on the door (where it connects near the fender). This spring is attached to bevelled edge that hits and humps over a little circle hanging down. Spray some WD40 in there and it all goes away.
I'm gonna snap a pic real quick, brb...
