Rear back door air gap??

[Gene1]

Hi all. I just bought a used Berlingo year 2011.

I have noticed something and thought I would join a forum to ask opinions on it.

I attach a photo taken from inside the van cargo area facing towards the back doors. You will notice the light from outside showing through a gap.
The door looks fine with no damage and the curvature of the floor plastic and seal looks normal to me, no forklift damage etc, but I could be wrong as this is my first Berlingo.

Could you look at the photo and give me your opinion?

Thanks in advance, Gene.

Hi there,

That doesn't look normal at all. Either the door is bent / bashed in at the bottom or the seal lip is buckled, or the seal is off the lip. Mine is airtight. I've had that seal off and it never looks like yours does, better to take a picture from above that area with the doors open to see how straight it is. Also from crouching level.

It's 12 years old and it's a van so it's going to have a few dings. The outside of the door goes further down so just get some more seal on it to fill the gap if it worries you.

Sorry I haven’t been able to reply till now.
I will take a few more photos 2morro.
It looks to me like the floor is actually moulded this way, I’ll post photo tomorrow. Thanks for replies.

I t looks like it got a wee dent from a forklift so something.

It is an easy fix though....
