So i have a 1992 LS400 and around the drivers door there is a 2mm or so gap around the top.

I have tried to adjust the door side hinge bolts no real change. I am guessing that a previous owner either had the wind catch the door or someone tried to break into the car.

I have put extra weather stripping around the door frame and that helps less noise on windy days and highway driving.

Does anyone know if the frame side hinges can correct this issue or do i need a replacement door?

I have tugged on the top frame to see if i can bend it back some but it won't budge.

Just wondering what i can do.

Thanks

Most likely was opened without a key, ie pop-a-lock type services... unfortunately, it is most likely never fixable completely, though if you are intent on fixing or replacing, at least try fixing a little more, with a lot more force...

Force meaning something I can do myself or take to bodyshop? I worry I may brake some trim. What way could I apply more force?

Thanks

put something in the bottom door sill, or between the door sill and the door itself, then push in on the top of the door - you definitely won't break any trim if whatever you put at the bottom is placed correctly... it may or may not fix anything but its worth a shot...
