Sagging Rear Door

My rear door is starting to sag and the inside is catching against the metal guide above the door latch. Is there any way to adjust the hinges to lift up the door a little bit?

Yes there is

Yes there is.
The adjustment you need to do involves removing the door panel and the black plug on the door covering the access to the bolts. The top hinge has a little play when loosening these two bolts. I however ended up replacing the top hinge, as this is usually the culprit for sagging doors the hinge and the pin wares out.
You need to open the door full open and support it. I used a table and some block. Loosen the bolts then sit on the bumper you will see the door move up. Tighten bolts and check you may have to do this a couple of times to get it right.
