Audi Genuine Roof Drip Molding Clip - 8V0853585

This is a small nylon fastener used primarily to secure various pieces of exterior body trim and structural molding tight to the vehicle's frame. It prevents body panels and trim lines from pulling away or rattling, ensuring a tight, weather-resistant seal.

Depending on your specific Audi model and body style (such as Sportback/Wagon or Sedan), it is most commonly cataloged for:

• Rocker Panel / Side Skirt Molding: Securing the lower exterior side panels.

• Roof Drip Molding: Retaining the channel trim along the roofline that directs rainwater away.

• Floor & Pillar Trim: Securing lower structural exterior panels and shields.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Gray Nylon

• Type: Push-Type / Push-in Retainer

• Head Diameter: 9mm x 22mm

• Stem Length: 6mm

• Stem/Hole Size: Fits roughly a 4.8mm to 5mm square hole

Common Vehicle Applications

This part is widely used across modern VAG vehicles, heavily appearing on the Audi A3 platform (including Premium, Premium Plus, Prestige, and Sportback e-tron variants) from roughly 2016 onward. Note: Because these small nylon clips frequently become brittle or snap when body molding is removed for maintenance, painting, or repair, they are typically replaced with new units during reassembly.
