Title: C4 rear hatch adjustment
Post by: Thunder Kiss on September 12, 2005, 04:44:51 PM

Has anyone adjusted the glass hatch on their C4?  How do you do it?

The top panel alignment is OK.

...but the glass sits too far back which over time has caused this scuff mark to appear.

It looks, to me, that I have to adjust this strange looking thing (to the right).  Is there a special tool for it?

I've not done this adjustment but 1mm at the top will turn into 5mm at the latch.  See if you can adjust one of the corners at the top perhaps.

I reckon it would be a b!tch to adjust it!
