New foil on the window/door

[skylaq]

So my little lemon has gone into the dealer for the xxx time this year.

Now she is getting her foil redone on her door/window part, it's coming a bit off from the top.
They told me that I've polished her with a machine, that's why it's coming off like that.

And I asked them to check the rubber part around the door too, since it keep creeping inwards and I have to pull it back out so it actually covers the sill.
Anyone else having this problem?

And I asked them to check the rattling sound that is coming off that little panel on the dash, the part under that triangle thingy.
It seems to be a little loose on the passenger side.

I bet my dealer is pretty sick of me...

I don't have a machine polisher so not happened to me and I feel lucky that my DS3 currently doesn't rattle either

I woudn't worry about how the dealer feels, they'll soon let you know if you're out of order

Luckely they are gonna fiks the rattle, but not today.. that didnt have that trim that was needed in stock.
So I guess I get to take her in one more time, oh joy!

Oh! and there was one more thing I wanted them to check.
My door, when you open or close it on the driver side makes this crazy cranking sound... you would think my car was 30 years old by the sound.

Open the door and have a look at the hinges, there should be a silver rod called the check strap. Have a look at the bolts holding it on as they come loose and make the noise you mentioned.

[lfcrule1972]

Yep, they may be loose or the internal part of the check strap (normally visible where it connects to the car door) may now be out of alignment if it's moved

Too late now, they swapped the door-stopper or what you may call it in English. :lemon:

Foil ?

[lfcrule1972]

I think this refers to the sticky plastic trim on the door pillars Zack
