Door trim issues

RR-NYC · 06-24-2020, 10:14 AM

The Lower door trim on 3 of my 4 doors are loose on one or both ends. Does anybody else have this issue?

Dealer looked at them and says that how they are. I say BS

Here's a video (no sound) after they tightened it up. I am putting very little pressure and you can see how it separates from the body

Similar to mine. It was like this on my '19 M40i as well

Took a video of mine. Passenger side first and the drivers side.

I hope the link works

Front #18 and #20 hold that area in, accessing those areas requires removing the door card, removing the mirrors, disengaging the window and removing the window motor assembly. https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=51_8216

Rear #25 and #23 https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=51_8226

I checked mine the rears are poor the front door ones OK, this car is built badly first US built BMW I've had after 12 German built ones I have to say it's pretty shonky for a car at this price level.

To add to the poor build quality it's due yet another recall for something and the tyre pressure system has failed as well....not good.
