'Vert Top Seal

[m3f_YStress]

Anybody have an issue with their convertable top not sealing in the back. With my top up, I can see daylight through the bottom of the rear driver's side. The passengers side seems fine.



Anyone know how to adjust this? :banghead:

Nope, there must be some way you can adjust the frame or increease the travel on the softtop motor (like a garage door opener).

Take it to the dealer...you do not want to mess this up! :bs:

[m3f_YStress]

Yeah, I do not want to mess this up. I was hoping this is a quick adjustment, cause the dealr wants $$. The Bentley manual doesn't seem to help. Anyone else?

Call a dealer and ask them, maybe it's an easy enuf fix that they can explain it over the phone. You might have to try a few dealers, they might not want to let you know. cha ching! cha ching!

Let me look see if I can dig some stuff up from bmw...

Man... I dunno... looking thru these techincal docs, it looks like they got a bunch of special tools needed to adjust the frickin top, I have yet to see anything about the seal, Ill keep loooking, but its getting grim....

Seems to me that the driver side has to be lowered so the rubber seal touches the car. This would make both sides parallel and then both sides would be touching the car. They are currently not parallel. Anything that explains how to do that?
