Hi this is my first post on here so forgive me if I posted into the wrong section. We have been looking to upgrade from our lovely T5 camper convert to a full on used California, we have looked a a couple so far with the best being today however I wasn't happy with the roof as this is one of my detailed scrutiny areas following the buckled/kinked roof stories I have heard about. Now I am not sure how to explain this so here we go - when looking from back to front or front to back along the side of the roof or some folk call the clam shell there is a small bulge/ripple worse near to the rubber seal fading out as the panel folds to the roof top. This is on both sides approx where the scissor hinges are located, its difficult to see however it can be seen in the sunshine (now i know its there).
My question is does this sound like the result of the roof getting stuck at some point on the return and the rams have carried on trying to close the roof?
Can it be repaired simply with right amount of pressure with experienced hands?
Bottom line is its very small and I may have exaggerated to emphasize the subject also noted that the roof lines up perfect on the front and sits nice all round when lowered i suppose if I am being picky you perhaps could slide a couple of sheets of A4 paper under the rear corners but I am being picky I think.
Please let me know your thoughts and any pics you may have as what to look for.
Thanks
