After a year driving a new Plus Four I've finally lost it with the terrible, bad design that allows the doors to shut onto you when parked on a slight slope, or a bit of wind or even movement in the car. I haven't seen the mechanism inside the door but dealer says its a spring ball affair that is supposed to hold the door in position, the spring must not have enough tension. Has anyone found a solution? HELP! Talking to other owners it seems all CX cars suffer. I'm desperate to improve it this having knee trouble myself and worse the wife has grease on her trousers!

So there is scope for trad tinkering on a CX. Not all is lost.
