1. Do you mind if I ask you to open the door?
2. Do you mind if I asked you to open the door?
------------------------
#1 is correct. How about #2? Can we use 'asked'? •English - Writeacher, Friday, September 30, 2016 at 7:13am
You can use either, but the tense in 2 is off. #1 is better.

Thank you for your help.
3. Do you mind if I asked you to open the door?
4. Would you mind if I asked you to open the door?
(#4 is grammatical, isn't it? In writing, if a person writes as in #3, isn't it incorrect?)

Both are correct, but not used much.
