Doors wont stay open?

i have a 04 g35 coupe! My doors wont stay open anymore! only way they will is if there all the way open and then doesn't take much for them to close! Is there a part i need to replace? This is driving me nuts?

most doors have a set brace that clicks open at halfway and fully open positions, its sits between the top and bottome hinge at the front of the door. it's not hard to replace. you would need to but it at the dealership.

Thats High Class. Automatic closing doors. My driver side does that, and its actually pretty nice to not have to shut the door manually. I have an 05 so I expect those kind of things.

your probably parked on an incline. Best thing to do is to park backwards.....or rice it out and get lambo doors, but then again..it might come down and knock you upside your head for being ricey.

Nope. Definitely not an incline. I park on a cement pad. Very level.
