Fixing coach door gap with 2020/2021 View/Navion

[rprochnow]

Our coach door had air gaps at the top and bottom corners.

Adjusting the upper and lower u-bolts to be as close to the inside of the cabin as possible helped to reduce the gaps - but small gaps still remained (which you can see when it's bright outside and darker inside the coach).

While having service done last week, I mentioned this to the service advisor - and they were able to eliminate the remaining gaps by adjusting the rubber door gasket in the corners.

The gasket has adhesive holding it in place - it is possible to reach around the back of the lower corner gasket (there's a larger gap between the door frame and the siding panel), and pull the gasket out. And then by slowly pulling the gasket out along the edge to the top, the gasket can be moved out enough to eliminate the air gap.

The service had recommended putting some filler to prevent the gasket from returning to the original position - but because it would take hours for the filler to cure, I didn't have enough time to wait for that to be done. So if the gap returns, I'll repeat the procedure and either put the filler or something else in the corners to keep them from sliding back and re-creating the air gap.
