96 1.9 Noisy doors - rightinker
My car doors make an increasingly irritating noise when I open them - two clunks when opened wide. I am told these are the door arrestor pin (?) Does this sound right?
Please could soemone tell me how I go about changing them before they send me mad?

If your car has typical 1990s Peugeot door-restraints, the check-strap roll-pin by the hinge may be worn, and the spring which holds it inside the door may be slack. Try a shot of spray grease on both of them. If they look rusty brown (they probably will) replacing the pin may help. Driver's door will be worst, obviously.

I would agree, a little lubrication makes a lot of difference.
