My Macan S has a door ding more or less in the middle of the offside rear door. It’s been there a while but is getting more annoying rather than less annoying.

I tried a local guy who works at some local dealerships and he couldn’t repair it as he thinks it sits on some sort of reinforcement strut (or just an internal part of the door)

I want it fixed and may have to go down the body shop route - anyone faced this issue before? Advice always welcome.

there are areas that they can't get to in some cases to do their magic so he is probably right but get a second opinion

Possibly worth trying my guy but you might be a bit far out.

He was recommended to me by Andy Bruce if you know who he is - he has a few nice cars and Ryan has worked on them

I put a dent about 20mm in the roof frame (above the rear side window) of my C class whilst pushing my elbow against it while loading my kayak. No way you could get behind it but a local dent removal specialist stuck (dont know how) a small clamp to it and pulled the dent out. Used a small mallet to get it back perfect.

Tracey is his official nickname, although "Tacky" could displace it! 🤣
