    Did my dealer "bend" my door?

    Hi folks,
    got my D5 back yesterday. It was at the dealer to fix a few things. Sadly, they scratched my door panel and seat. Those will be replaced. So it's "ok". What really worries me is, that they managed to mess up the door on the front right. They were supposed to replaced the windows sealing where I point at in the picture. They did but now the top of the door does not close all the way anymore. You can even see the b-pillar. And it's just the top of the door - the "frame" for the window. The lower part still fits perfectly. I think that can't be adjusted, can it? Did they bend the door??? Sad








    Greets,

    It does look out of line. I wouldn’t have thought they managed to bend the door, but there again main dealerships manage to do things you and I would find impossible. Take it back and have a moan at them. Don’t ask them, tell them they were responsible. Thumbs Up

    Oh boy... Every time they lay hand on my cars, they damage something. Not once I have been there and didn't have to return to get them to correct the work they have done. Bending the door frame really gets me angry. Sad How is this going to be fixed? I bet they will (try) to just bend it back.

    Is the door seal seated properly at the top of the door? That could push the door out.

    Just checked it - Sealing is ok. Really looks like they bend the window frame. Sad
