Default Help with removal?

Does anyone know how to remove this small panel on the rear door? It is starting to bubble underneath from rust.

It's written in theBentley service manual. I am not at home so I can't help you. Maybe it just pulls away with a trim removal tool?

Mine have some bubbling too. I'm waiting for rust to show before sanding and repainting.

I do not have access to a Bentley Manual, but the exterior service manual for Audi has nothing in it stating the procedure for removal.

The Bentley manual is available for purchase. That's how I got mine.

Maybe it would be covered under the Audi rust warranty?

There is one screw behind the chrome trim below, the parts not expensive so with complaining about the corrosion you may get it for a decent price

Part No. 4E0853274C Y9B
