On my car it was all of the above, plus window frame position, since mine is a coupe.
Good luck,
Dave
thats what i was thinking.
with the latch off, close the door and see if you feel any resistance.
all that stuff is adjustable so it may be a matter of adjusting it all.

i pulled all that off on my 914. i alingned the door to the body then adjusted all the latching.....from what i remember
