I have many of the same issues, although fridge is in a slide. Distance to back wall is ok; one side is 2" away from wall, other side is 1.25" away from wall, top is almost 3 inches from ceiling. There is some insulation stuck in the gaps but it does little as far as filling the gaps. There was wallboard covering about 2/3 of the fin area. Mfg said it has to be there; Dometic said no way and that I should open the fins up. I went with Dometic's recommendation, although it didn't help as air from the fans just drifts around behind the fridge. I think I am going to create a chimmney out of ductwork metal to pretty much ensure air goes through the fins like it should. I don't think that will fix the root problem; however, which is pretty much no cooling at all when outdoor temps drop below 40; minimal cooling below 60, and super cooling when outdoor temps are high. But one can hope...
