How much adjustment is there in the doors?

The back door of the my GV is quite rattly from the striker area. Is there much adjustment in the hinges or the striker? I tried unscrewing the catch but couldn't find any room for adjustment. Maybe I missed something???

Also is there any adjustment in the front door? My front passenger door sits a little too far from the frame and the seals don't contact.

Thanks all.

I recently had this issue with my vitara. But I just undid the striker and moved it, then re-tightened the screws. I'm not sure if there is room for adjustment of the latch tho. Also have a look for any rubber stoppers. My tailgate has them on the body above the striker, and you can usually wind them out a little.

In my experience the striker/latch on the tail gate of the GV has very little movement - there's a circular buffer below it that can be moved to quiet the rattles though.

The other four dorrs can be adjusted in the usual manner - release the striker screws with an impact screwdriver and slide them in or out as required.
