On what basis did they reject the claim?

I need to check mine now. Do you get any error codes if the flaps stick?

Not sure actually, I would doubt it as they are still working just clearly sticking / squeaking when they open / close.

My B8 was not covered for the rear box as I believe exhausts are not covered.
A bit like a rusty subframe is not considered part of the bodywork lol

Annoying it seems it is covered under the 3 year manufacturers warranty but not the extended.

Could be worse, Audi replace the exhaust under warranty but then deny scratching the bodywork when you collect the car. :thumbsdown:

Decided to tackle it myself with a tub of copper grease and a long paintbrush. Slapped it on, job done, it worked!

So angry the dealer didn't even try to help the issue. In hindsight I should have tried this first, just didn't realise how simple it would be.

Put a Cete AVC on it, keep the valves permanently open - sorted?
