  • rear door alignment on MK2

    Hi All,

    I've got a '08 MK2 Octavia RS sedan, and the panel fit where the rear doors meet the wheel arch isn't completely flush, the door skin sits maybe 2-3mm out from the wheel arch on both sides. I don't think there's been any previous panel repair (and it's on both sides), so is this normal, or is it a sign the doors both need adjustment/alignment? I used to have a 2011 wagon but I don't remember noticing it on that.

    Has anyone else with a MK2 noticed this?

    It just seems odd because the panel fit is otherwise really good on these cars.

    Cheers.

    Can't say I noticed it on ours, my parents have it now so can't look.

        ^ Note he is talking about the sedan. I had an 08 sedan until recently and didn't notice anything sticking out.
