Common fault with Micras. Slacken the two bolts on the bottom hinge and insert a piece of galvanised or aluminium sheet between the door and hinge. Cut the spacer in the shape of a capital letter E so that the slots slide over the two bolts. Thicknes of spacer will depend on how far door has dropped. (Trial and error should work).
