Its alloy so no big problem, you could get your paint shop to refinish, prob easier to buy two new trims, have a windscreen or paint shop man remove and replace windows and refit new trim.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ive got a few rust bubbles in the trim around both of the rear side windows of my ´95 993. Reading the earlier thread started by Gatekeeper I see its not an uncommon problem. Ive just been told by Nottingham Porsche that this is not covered by the 10 year corrosion warranty...??? I was wondering if you had any better luck Gatekeeper? Does anyone know of an OPC that knows that rust bubbles are a form of corrosion? Cheers, John Migration info. Legacy thread was 14401

POST 2Original post

rusty bits... I reckon you are refferring to the black anodised trim under the rear window, so its not part of the body structure and thats why Porsche arent interested under the terms of their body warranty. Its alloy so no big problem, you could get your paint shop to refinish, prob easier to buy two new trims, have a windscreen or paint shop man remove and replace windows and refit new trim. Good luck.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the replies, It is the anodised trim under the windows, I´ll get some new ones fitted. As for squeaks the only one Ive got is an occasional one from somewhere in the drivers door which usually goes away if I hit it with my elbow Migration info. Legacy thread was 14538
