alpha omega Posted February 3, 2023 Posted February 3, 2023 hi all i have an audi a4 avant estate(b8)2011 tdi boot load cover and its been jumping out of its holding when pulling the cover towards me.the 2 pegs on the left(see pic 1 ) sits tight in place but the 2 to the right(pic 2) were not protruding far enough out.so i wd 40d the 2 pegs, and the catch. and after 10 minutes the pegs have worked their way out, far enough to now stay in place though i do have to push down and pull to the left and then let go for the boot load cover to stay in place.not sure for how long but its been 2 weeks now and have given the boot load cover a few pulls in that time and it has stayed in place.i guess its ware.and yes its had a clean lol.hope it helps someone with the same issue 2
Steve Q Posted February 4, 2023 Posted February 4, 2023 Thanks for the useful info 🙂 be careful of the pegs as they're known to break.

You might be able to get machined aluminium end caps like you can for the c5. They're not cheap though. 1
