Windows Door flex

NighthawkES · 25th January 2008, 19:55

I love the new Civic and have had no problems so far. Although I have noticed that when the front windows are wound up to the top the whole door panel flexes inwards quite noticably. Has anyone else noticed this happening or is this just a problem on my car? Hopefully its just a characteristic of all the Civics???

Yes, but as they all do it, it is most probably by design.

Thanks for all your replies chaps (and chapesses) Please ignor this thread from here on as I now have the answers I was looking for. It seems most Civics have this phenomonnon... phenomomom... phenonunmum... phenon... ...have this happen to them.

I wouldn't worry about it. I had an Accord and it did exactly the same thing.

Oooops. Just saw your previous thread asking for no more replies. Sorry!
