The top hinge on the front cargo door of my split is loose while the screws are still tight ie the hinge moves back and forward. Any suggestions on how to rectify this problem. Also what is the best way to remove the screws that hold the doors on. I dont want to use an impact screwdriver as I belive it may change the shape of the openings. Drill the screws out ???

I would be taking it all apart and investigating why it wont tighten up.

You might have a burr on the screw or they might be too long and or you could make a shim to go behing the hinge to space it out a bit.

Yes you right dont hit it untill you know whats wrong
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
