thats a pity - any chance of returning the camera or getting factory repairs done, since it was not assembled correctly?

Suggest you try for quite a bit better than 0.2mm - the depth of focus of the optics is only about 50 microns, so you probably want to get the chip parallel to the body to within about 30microns or so. Otherwise the defocus plus incorrect coma correction with the MPCC will produce very odd shaped stars.
