W124 Doors won't stay open

All four doors of my 1987 300D will swing shut on their own any time the car is on the slightest incline. Every other vehicle I've dealt with had a detent of some form that would allow you to open the door all the way and it would then hold itself open (unless you pulled hard enough to go past the detent and then it would swing shut). Is there something wrong here, or is this normal?

Perfect, thanks! I spent some time searching but found basically nothing. That (at least on first glance) appears to be precisely what I need.
