I used the search, but perhaps I used the wrong terms. Please forgive me if this is posted elsewhere.

My car is a 2006 987. I have about 60,000 miles on it, so it's out of warranty. Over the winter, my wife had a problem with the top (I believe she broke one of the arms, but I was out of town, so I don't have all the details).

We currently live in Boeblingen, so she took it to the dealer in Stuttgart. 1200 euros later, less VAT, it was fixed. But because it was winter, the top wasn't used that much. Now, I get to play with my car again, and I've noticed that when you put the top back up, on the passenger side it "jumps" out of the plastic trim on the back side of the window. Fully closed, it is stretched over the trim instead of tucked inside. While no water leaks, I can see that it's stretching the stitching a little bit. If I stop the roof 3/4 of the way closed, I can pop it back in, but this is inconvenient to say the least. If I close the top all the way, it is too tight to pop back behind the plastic.

On the inside of the car, the inner liner also jumps out of its track. The driver's side is fine.

Is there a way to re-adjust this, without going back to the dealer? Believe it or not, customer service across the street from the factory is at a level slightly lower than you'd find at a Chevy dealer in the States. I'll do it if I have to, and I will try and convince them that while nine months have gone by, it should be covered, but if I can fix it myself I will have both learned how to do it as well as saved a good deal of time and aggravation. Any ideas? Thanks.
