Title: Not again
Post by: omegaV6CD on 13 October 2006, 09:15:18
47GBP and three months later the rear passenger door mould is screwed again. Should i take the car to vauxhall dealer and tell them to replace it? I think there is 12 month warranty with these things. I'm starting to believe that they are out of drawing spec these items thats why they interfere. Or should i just pick up a slegde hammer and redecorate the whole car. I'm so pissed off right now. >:(

Sorry to hear it. If it was done by a dealer & has warranty then definitely take it back, if not; not sure how you stand, worth a try though.

I managed to straighten the metal bit and tomorrow i will use some epoxy ultra strong glue to glue the bent plastic in place, i hope it will work.

Are we talking about the bump strips? I am just about to change mine again if so...try as I might I cannot get the front door to catch on the rear door strip?? ...oh well I got mine from a scrappy £2..easy to do if you take your time.

Yes parts being out of spec which mean poor quality or probably the designer didn't do a proper tolerance stack up on the interference parts and therefore he specified wider tolerances than what it sould be and there you are.
