My car is 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited V8 all wheel drive, Two questions:

1) The car is all time 4x4 and on tide curves, such as parking, the front wheels shake/viberate. I did the differential service and the dealer told me it is normal since the outside wheel is turning on larger radious?

2) I hear a clicking noise while opening the driver door. I followed the noise and it was the piece holding the door to the body and it was snapping. I was told it is the Door Check and it needs replacement. To do that the door panel needs to come out. Is that true?

Ok the turning vibration depends on how tight the turn and what speed. Now as for the door stop I don't believe you have to pull the panel I didn't on my 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It was just two screws on one side and a pin on the other if I recall right. I can look again if needed.
