If your Chevy Express van is having trouble closing properly, or is making too much noise when opening and closing, it may be time to adjust the sliding door. Fortunately, this is a relatively easy process that can be completed in just a few minutes.
First, open the sliding door and inspect the rubber seal that runs along the inside of the door frame. If this seal is damaged or worn, it will need to be replaced. Once the new seal is in place, close the door and check to see if it is closing properly.
If the door is still not closing properly, the next step is to adjust the door latch. Locate the adjustment screws on the side of the latch, and turn them clockwise to tighten the latch, or counterclockwise to loosen it.
Once the latch is properly adjusted, the last step is to adjust the door roller. Locate the adjustment screws on the top and bottom of the door, and turn them clockwise to raise the door, or counterclockwise to lower it.
After making these adjustments, your Chevy Express van's sliding door should be closing and opening smoothly and quietly.
