Mine has never fitted particularly well.. Is this normal. Both Rubber bungs seem to travel all the way and the one securing bolt is right home. However it seem to "hang" there with a 3-5 mm gap... push it right home and within seconds it hangs out again.

Is this the norm?

Cheers, Cobbster

Quality german engineering.
Mine also fits like loose rattly thing - thought perhaps its air cooled through the gap

And mine! Can we prompt a BMW recall for covers that fit????

The way they fit is poor and you can understand why the sag the way they do..... I can only asume that those people who have bought the CFibre covers (incredibly expensive) have the same problem??
