No manual adjustment I believe it tightens to a fixed spot.
I reckon you need that rubber block at bottom of the door to create the right closed door tension. They can be knocked out easily.

Yeah where does one acquire those rubber stoppers? Are they generic or LR specific?

Well there is an LR part number but they a generic stopper. Just depends on whether you want to go through finding a generic equivalent or buy one at a price. LR Cat will have the part number.

Whaat...makes no sense at all..how do they adjust when fitting the doors originally?

Maybe like in old days...with a long bar and large hammer 😎

Now I'm going to undo those screws to find out if they move ...but given the modern car is largely un repairable..i suspect you are right!
