F***ing doors

I am finding that recently that both doors are becoming increasingly difficult to shut properly. I can count on the fingers of one hand the amount of times the drivers door has shut first time and properly (no glass overlap on the top seal) and now the problem has started on the passenger door aswell. I am finding that I have to close the door by pushing the top of the glass as otherwise it wont shut properly. I am reluctant to take it to the dealer to have sorted as I have read about roof aliignment problems. I leave my vents open and still I have to slam my door to close it.

We had our driver's door adjusted 3 times. On each occassion it was OK for a while then started doing it again. Took to taking photographs of glass overlap problem with a dated newspaper cover as it never did it whilst in a dealers possession!

Even the CC courtesy car we had for a month did it!

Mine's the same, check the seatbelt. The plastic coated part of the seat belt gets caught at the side of the seat release/adjust handle thus causing the door to stay open slightly. It was a problem in the early days, then went away, and has now been back since 30K miles. I have to shut my door twice every time I get in. Why haven't I had it fixed ? maybe I'll mention it when I take it back for the boot lock to be sorted.
