Anyone else finding the small blanking covers either end of the bumper hanging out after long drives (by long I mean 35 miles over B roads and dual carriageways)?

Seems the ride vibrations are shaking them loose and I can just pop them back in with my foot, but it would be nice if they stayed in.
 
blanking plates? do you have a picture.
I dont have this problem, I have seen other people have the headlight washer covers under the headlights get stuck open after spraying their windows and thats about it

Hmmm, might be my misunderstanding as to what they are, I don't remember seeing any jets in them, but I shall have a closer look.
 
After closer inspection, you are right, I hadn't seen the jets recessed into the bumper. The flaps feel like they get stuck closing, so I'll search the forums for other related posts. Thank you for the insight.

Same problem here - Audi are replacing mine at £160 a corner (£72 of that is labour!!). I'm not paying for it, so fine by me :welcoming:
 
I'll see if my WarrantyWise warranty covers them, otherwise I'll be getting into them with a cotton bud and WD40...
