Hi ya'll,It may be all in my head, but it seems that the doors of my wife's 2009 Vibe GT close with more resistance than the doors on my 2009 Vibe GT. I like the way her doors close better. Is there a way to increase closing resistance?Thanks.

And therein lies the problem with two of something! Compare and contrast.Do you mean latching or hinge swing resistance?You could always adjust your striker to pull the door in a tad tighter if you desire. If you don't have wind noise or leaks, why bother?Swing resistance, just time to remove the lube from the hinges.Dave
