CSL Door Sill Covers

[englebert]

Mine sill covers are corroded, almost like water has got inside under the plastic. Anyone successfully got them covered under warranty? Mine is fairly low mileage so its a bit disappointing.

Otherwise, how much am i looking to replace both sides?

Cheers

I managed to get one paid for and the other one I had to pay for - better than nothing :)

Just need to send them to Ade now :)

I might give the dealer a crack then... was it referred to BMW UK or were they a push over?

Can't believe its over £85 for a bit of plastic :smt083

I think they had to request it of BMW UK, the car was out of warranty too - so this was a goodwill case. The actual cost was £100 inc vat, etc

Good tip Mark..:thumbs:

Now that the cars are 6 years old and the body work warrenty runs out this year for 03 cars wouls imagine it would be difficult to get them from BMW without paying surely....Good luck with that one.

That reminds me, my dealer seems to think the cars have a 12 year paint warranty??? Who am I to argue with him though, feck that!

I'm getting my door catches done for a start and they are taking at look at something quite major next time I on terra firma. Will keep you posted.

I have a roll of baking foil and plenty of glue and a stencil pack .... and used to be a regular watcher of Blue Peter (the childrens' programme not the DazBlackCSL version in the Mens room - good effort Daz).

Nice. Jazz club.
