Panel defects
I have noticed that both front doors have defects in the metal work just below the door handles,the left hand being the worst.I took my car to the dealer I bought it from and his first reaction that it was damaged from somebody opening a door on it and then I told him to look again and he agreed it couldn't have done by outside forces.
We then went in to the showroom and he had a 520d there with a exactly the same defects and checked another 2 cars with the same result.
I then spoke to there bodywork guy and he said the first time he noticed it was when he fitted a new door to a 5 series and thought it was damaged in transit, he now realises that they are all like it.
The problem now is every time I walk up to the car my eye goes straight to the defects,they have offered to "repair" the doors but I am
unhappy with this as the paintwork will not be original.
My build date for my car was 3rd Sept 2019 and I did do a search to see if this has been mentioned before as I am sure I can't be the only to have noticed this but I couldn't find anything.
Let me know your thoughts.
