hi,
A side door (passenger) and the backdoor are stuck of the volvo 340. The sidedoor can only
be opend from the inside (not on the outside) and the backdoor is completely stuck. If you
have a tip for me how to repair this or know a site with technical drawings of the 340 i would
be very pleased.
Thanks for any help.
greetings

A garage will soon fix the problem. So I don't have to worry
about it anymore. Thanks for your reply anyway.

I had the same problem on my 360 on driver side, it would
only open half way. In the end I just used brute force and kicked it open and now it opens and
closes fine. It was as if something got jammed in the hinges.
If in doubt sm58 it :D

I have had a look at it and remove some skrews from the inside of the door. I could see what
was wrong, there was a loose piece of metal, but i didnt know how to fix it so i leave it over the
people (garage) who know what do do whit it. It didnt look broke but just hanging loose.
