[QUOTE="NCH, post: 20436, member: 19884"] Hello everyone!I was away from the country for one week and while I was gone, there was some tiling work done to my garage. Consequently, my car was parked outdoors for 5 days.When I got home, I noticed something about the exterior window trim. My car is a 325i M-sport so it comes with Shadowline trim.Needless to say more, please take a look at the pictures and you'll know what I mean.I went to the dealership and pointed out the issue. If something is not right, I'd like to get it repaired under warranty. The service consultant wasn't sure of its cause. The look on his face told me the windowtrim isn't supposed to be like that. Before he confirmed anything, he showed me some other E90s at the dealership. We looked at brand new showroom cars, demo cars, customers' cars. The window trims all looked like that! Since my car wasn't the only one with the "problem", he simply said "ohh it's designed like that to trap rain water".
