R55 clubman/van Barn door rusting
Discussion
Looking to get a feel for how many people have been successful in getting rear barn doors replaced under warranty for the regularly seen rusting around the rear wipers and along the bottom edge of the rear windows . Mini aren’t playing ball with me currently , but it seems on line that multiple people have been successful in getting this fixed …...
We had our 2006 "S" rear hatch door replaced due to rust forming though the seam sealer.
This was done 11 years and 6 months into its life.
Was fairley plain sailiing, as we had full BMW service history, all on time and book stamped.
As one thing with the early minis is there is a body inspection to keep the corrosion warranty active, apparently thats done with the servicing, so sometimes it pays to go to the dealer.
Had it been to an independent they would of probably thrown it out.
