David, Have a re-read of the second paragraph of your initial post - I guess it is written incorrectly. Initial interpretation was ‘water sloshing in the doors’. Please explain clearly where this water sloshing is actually evident, and help us by not including references to other vehicles which we now find have zero connection with your issue. Sorry, but..

Hello David, Dare I ask if you or anyone else has checked and adjusted the tyre pressures when cold? Yes, I know it’s straight from the book of the Bleeding Obvious, but….. Regards, Gareth.

Does this really equate to what I suggested in my post of 16 January?

Bit lost David. ’Had Audi TT and Golf…… (in workshop)…’. With the same problem?? When did you buy this vehicle, and how long has this issue been evident? Bodyshop ‘ I will call one day….’. Doesn’t seem you are setting much urgency on getting the issue sorted. Regards, Gareth.

Apologies for contra opinion Basil, but there should never be any element of ‘cross your fingers’ with this. Serious chance of fingers getting burnt here.

Welcome David and sorry to hear of your issue. I’m not a Q2 owners, so I can’t help you with experiences of similar issues, but a couple of suggestions:- Do a forum search on say, ‘water, door’ ( selecting Everywhere from the drop down menu). You may find some yes, I’ve had that or not. One question to ask yourself- Do you think VAG would have marketed this model if it had this ‘characteristic’ issue? Might be well worth taking the car to a trusted local large scale bodyshop and talking to them about it. Please let us know how you get on. Regards, Gareth.

Was this information of any help to you Toby?

As I’ve said before, I’ve always used VAG’s Quantum brand - Longlife 3 variant - available from reputable sellers on EBay. Regards, Gareth.

Better double sided tape and better surface preparation than was carried out originally David. I would be very surprised if your now local dealer wouldn’t do this for you David. Regards, Gareth.

‘I contacted a few this afternoon….’ A few what Kieran? Re. quantity of fabric - measure the areas you are going to cover and add about 15% for overage. If you find an acceptable fabric then it’s likely to be in 54 inch widths, so you would need to calculate how many individual areas you are going to accommodate within that width.

Welcome Eileen, Suggest you read the well discussed threads on this topic on this forum. Do a forum search under ‘Cambelt’ using Everywhere in the drop- down menu selection. Please come back to us with your choice of alternatives. Regards, Gareth.

Welcome, Suggest checking wiring in the flexible harness section twixt A post and front of door frame. Please let us know how you get on. Regards, Gareth.

Being realistic Kieran, I doubt whether many members on here will have had to source car trimmers, but we never know. The ‘knowledge’ is more likely to be with local classic car enthusiasts - hence the suggestion. Please let us know how you get on. Regards, Gareth.

Did you message in English - without a Google translation?

Wait time from Europe?

Hello Kieran, Not wanting to preempt any recommendations from members, but have tried a Google search for Classic car trimmers in your area of interest? Well worth doing, in addition to making contact with an ‘all makes’ Classic car club in your area, and asking for recommendations there. Regards, Gareth.

But your profile now shows Martin H. so whatever has been done has worked. Thanks, Gareth.

Hello Brazil, Since when has any ordinary-ish modern production Audi been an investment? Regards, Gareth.

Worth registering your ‘want’ on-line car breaker link sites. Partsfinder is one, but there are more. Wait time from Europe?

Thanks, please keep us updated on progress.

Welcome M.H. As I see it, you are joining to seek member’s assistance with a business project you have in mind, and it is bad form not to include your proper name in your profile. Perhaps you would like to sort that bit out first. Regards, Gareth.

Any progress Fri?

Any further information Lizy?

Sorry, not understanding the reply.

New or secondhand? Where have you tried so far Teresa?
