Hi all, my drivers door will not stay open in the locked position when fully open, your thoughts and suggestions to sort the problem much appreciated, thanks for your time!  :y

I assume the check strap has broken away :( Common fault, but if that is your problem, there is a 'How To' repair in the Maintenance section. And a repair kit available.

Hopefully not teaching granny to suck eggs, but the check strap is the metal bar between the frame and the door. ;) It has two settings as you open the door. :y
I have the problem on one of my estates, swmbo keeps giving me hell over it, as Omega doors are really heavy!!!! I'll get round to doing it some day...I have a plate here, just need enthusiasm. :y
