Hi,

Can anyone help me please.

My A4 has plastic trims along the bottom of the doors on the outside. Over the last couple of months these have begun to curve outwards so they no longer fit flush with the sills. Anyone come across this before? There are still firm and dont appear to have come loose. In some places you can get your finger underneath.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Paul

 

they get like that.. just pick some new ones up at the stealership

 

when the happend to mine I just bought some 3m double sidded take and fix it with that.. worked good for me and looked fine.. I think ECS sells new moldings and new clips.. its a common problem the plastic clips break..

 

Time to replace.

You can get them at www.ecstuning.com for like 30 apiece. Don't know what the dealer charges.

 

i would try the tape first worked for me and I just did it to my friends 98 a4 cant tell and the 3m stuff is strong..

 

how did u tape them, remove first?

I can see a small screw at the opening end, what else holds them on

 

mine was just starting to come off same with my friends.. I just put some tape were the clip was that was showing by pulling back the molding just a bit and then pushing it back together till it was flush with the door.. couldnt tell there was tape on the molding once i was done..

 

Why would all four trims be pulling away at the same time?
They were fine two months ago

 

temp change.. plastic tends to change in different temps.. but all 4 at the same time.. that sucks.. what year is your car..

 

You're just going to need to replace them or they'll end up falling off all the time.

Like acetrebo said, ecstuning has them. For my old A4, I bought them from the dealer and it cost $60 total for all four.
