Just noticed that both doors on my 350 seem to be hitting/rubbing the bodywork when they close, making scuff marks. Basically the trailing edge of the door about halfway is where it is rubbing........anyone else had this or know how easy it is to adjust?
Had it on mine when it was new. They had to adjust the doors and respray it. I think the hinge adjustment is behind the carpet in the footwell, just in front of the bottom of the A pillar. Bugger of a job so i was told.
As yours is an 03 it should just be a case of adjusting the doors as they've probably just dropped slightly over time. They weren't rubbing when you bought the car so they must have fitted properly then.
Get them adjusted then wait a while before you have the paintwork touched up as they might start rubbing in another place.

Having both my doors this week. They were quite bad. Leaving car in sunlight caused doors to expand and jam. Had to pull them while pressing open button in order to get in. Really bad scratches down to glassfibre.
Also having roof done. My tailgate was opening too far and resting on the roof. Did'nt notice it for a while until marks showed up.
Having bonnet done as well. I lost a bolt from the offside bottom hinge bracket. Did'nt notice until right side of bonnet lifted about 9 inches when doing 80 !! Bonnet stay and remaining loose bolt held it on, but pulled the fixing on the stay. I thought these bolts were welded on, but obviously this one was'nt. Had car new in June.

The car is an 03 but I have only owned for a couple of months now. First time I have noticed this though so hopefully a bit of adjustment will do the trick!
Sorry to hear about your problems as well Dawil...at least they will do yours under warranty I guess being only a few months old
