My new coach door won't close all the way without slamming it much harder than I would like.

Chuck Boyd looked at it and suggested some lubrication, and failing that, adjustment.

How do I go about adjusting this?

It appears that the strike has four #3 (actually 3, one is missing) Phillips head screws and possibly sliding captured nuts that will move.

Does the actual latch on the door have any adjustments?

As you can see below, the door lacks almost 3/8" being flush with the body.
