Apparently no one else sees this problem (google/986 search = no joy)?
My cherry 70K 2002 S with ROW M030 suspension has developed chips in the passenger door sill, with a matching scuffed line on the lower aft door edge. I've checked the hinge bolts and striker plate, and all is as tight as new. The door gap is perfect on driver and pass side (about 6mm). Does the stiffer ROW suspension twist the body enough in battle (regular autocrosses) to make the door hit the sill? No marks at all on the drivers side. Weird!

TIA,
Roger
