FIX Suzuki Vitara and most other cars door check strap not stopping holding door from opening fully

[@elvisstorm7733]

I really hope that the people from Japan who develop SUZUKI cars also watched your video. Such a piece of crap from this door check strap from a Japanese manufacturer should not be allowed to be installed in cars. 5 years and it's broken. And not just for one door, but all four. I also have a Czech car and it is 25 years old and it works perfectly. Thanks for the video and good solution.

I'm pleased the video helped. I too have had old cars and have never had an issue with check straps.

Same with Subarus. The ones in those actually look exactly the same as the Vitara’s. I think they came from the same supplier. The window switches too.

Good idea. I have fixed all 4 straps in my Suzuki S-Cross 2016. Cheers from Hungary

Thank you thank you thank you. I've been looking for a way to fix it without replacing it.

I installed new damping clips from Aliexpress on my 2007 Grand Vitara. $5 kit for 2 doors. Seems to be working well so far.

Thank you I'm having the same issue with my Suzuki swift. Looks like the exact same parts are used for the door hinges thanks

Brilliant mate thank you ❤

I have a few Vitara videos if you search on my channel, might give you a few tips to tweak your car

Good video , now to see if I can get the door covers off . 3 stars

[@flaxvert]

I did it one handed, go meeee! hehe

[@LILALIZEFLAME]

Atleast your door falls open, mine on the previous model close themselves!! I have to hold it open with my foot as I get in. Suzuki never fixed this clearly.

[@flaxvert]

My car was on a slope so the door opened. The passenger door would need a foot to stay open. Like the squeaking brakes it is something they just didn't sort

[@Shots809]

Works like new 😅

[@jewelleryrecoveryspecialist]

You know that will last 2 months.. put some more washers in 😅

[@flaxvert]

It actually lasted 4 months before I just replaced them with new ones haha Thankfully they are pretty universal so i got a random cheap set that fitted ok from ebay
