  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Windshield trim removal

Hi all, I have some persistant squeaking/creaking issues and I think I may have narrowed them down to the windshield trim on my 2018 G80. Pressing on them creates an audible squeak, with the passenger being louder than the driver. Inside the car, I hear a squeak that's louder when braking or turning (weight shift) and no interior surface seems to produce a noise. When it's raining or the car goes through a wash, the noise disappears, making me think it's external rather than internal.

I will try to rejuvinate the rubber with a little silicone oil or grease, but it would be much easier if I can remove the entire trim, lube well, then reinstall it rather than trying to slide underneath. Does anybody have instruction on how to remove this piece?
 
Why not just turn it into dealer for warranty repair?

Fair point. I will need to bring it in for the sunroof and a clicky steering wheel soon. I guess I just figured it would help to correctly identify what it was, then I could have them fix it more directly. Asking for help with "a random squeak" didn't get me anywhere with my Alfa.
