This has happened on my driver's door(right hand in my case)
have notice a bit noisy for a while that has become quite loud and have noticed the weld has cracked.

Is there a realistic solution to this problem (by a reasonable handy man) and is there a reason this happens or is it just one of those things.

Cheers in advance.
