All: anyone know, if at all, how to adjust the top on my 2002--it is not in its track behind the driver's seat and leaves a 1 inch gap when the top is up.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 2Original post

I too would like to know- My porsche dealership said its a "BAD" top but they are willing to fix it under warranty and replace the whole thing. I think thats excessive, but I'm not going to complain if its free Mine is very similar to your issue, I believe...the driver side molding is off-track by .5-1 inch and has no water leaks. Any ideas?
