perhaps nitpicking but....
image of really the large A pillar/panel gaps of my 2022 m240x. This measures a 1/4 inch gap, passenger side, drivers side is a bit smaller about 3/16 inch. I recently took a walk thru a large parking lot checking out different vehicle A pillar panel gaps and found None like this. Most were equal to the adjacent door gap and in many cases even less than the door gap. I know GM (and others) in the 60's and 70s were notorious for uneven panel fits/gaps. But i have never had a car with such a huge panel gap.
My question, is this normal for this M240? Do others here with this car have such a wide gap?

Can you post the other side too?

Didn't capture that in pic but is similar but just a wee bit less gap, this side measures out at approx 1/4 inch, its visually double that of the door gap which is close to 1/8th inch.

just wondering if this is a BMW "normal"?

I don't remember my F80 M3 being much better on the gaps. The hood to front bumper gap seems big on mine but I won't be asking about it till I go to the dealership for the next service.

Attached a photo of my F80 to show the gap at the A pillar..... man, I miss that car now that I looked up the photos. I don't miss the paranoia of having to replace the DCT a second time though. I would have loved Sakhir Orange on the M240i

Gap is similar on my 240.

It was also a large gap on my 2018 340

ok, thanks, that's what i wanted to know, seems to be common to BMW for whatever reason.

mine is same size on both pillars so no worry

Body gaps rest of my Vehicle are lined up & fairly tight so I'm pleased

Only panel gap that bugs me a bit is the hood to front bumper. Need to see if I can adjust it a tiny bit.
