How do i re-aline my sliding doors on my citroen dispatch?

I have recently started my own business and have bought a Citroen Dispatch. I was very pleased with what i had bought and really like it but i seem to be getting a lot of wind noise from both the sliding doors and after inspecting them i noticed there is a slight gap on bth sides. I read somewhere that sometimes these doors need re-alining and this will sort the problem out. Does anybody know how to do this and if so please can you let me know?

Thanks

Hi kai..my friend just brought a dispatch,and on driving it back for him,i noticed a lot of wind noise coming through side door..on inspection found a 4 ml gap...easy fix..simply remove cover on top hinge remove arm from door..slide door back and secure with a bungee or summat..we noticed the metal area where the hinge bolted to was protruding..we simply hammered metal back flat and straightened bracket which was also bent..cured problem..

quite a bit of adjustment on hinges at top and bottom of door, but what usually happens is plastic catches in pillars break off. where big pins on door go into pillars should be plastic catches. re align pins and/or hinges by slackening all bolts and replace plastic catches. this shouuld bring doors in.
