    328 Door Alignment

    I picked up a CPO 328 a week ago and while driving today my girlfriend noticed that the passenger front door is not aligned correctly.

    Surprised that I didn't catch it and that it made it past the CPO process as well.

    Is this something I should expect BMW to take care of?

    Calling tomorrow just curious of anyone has run into this.

    Thanks!

    Post some photos so we can see just how bad it is - I would think that the CPO process would have noted this. Was there any mention that the door was removed?

    I saw nothing regarding a door being removed or anything.

    It looks like the door hasn’t closed properly and is sticking out rather than an edge/trim alignment. Not too sure how you’d adjust that to be honest.

    The pictures make it look worse than it is. I will talk to the dealer when I take it in for service - from what I have read they can adjust the striker on the door. We shall see
