I had taken my daughters 2000 Camaro to a body shop for this issue. The doors are fiberglass and the steel hinge was pushing into the glass causing the door to sag. The body shop guy comes out with this straight piece of steel. it had a hook on the end which fit on the striker pin and several inches back there was a bolt or something sticking out that fit into the latch. The door was about 8" from being closed and he lifted up on the lever lifting the door far past where it should be and then let go. The door came back down where it was where he started.

He said on metal doors that tool works great, but on the Camaro, the fiberglass was already damaged. I made a big metal shim that fit between the hinge and the door which gave the hinge a larger surface area on the door and it worked perfect. The door was level and closed like new.

Glad you got your door issue resolved!
