- Description:
2020-22, metro gray. Upper, diva gray. Listed under Audi part number 4M8-857-916-2NH, this Instrument Panel Molding finishes and protects an exterior surface, and while the function is partly cosmetic, these components also manage airflow, shield against debris, and seal transitions between panels. It is supplied through the Audi dealer parts network and matches the component installed at the factory. Confirm fitment against your vehicle identification number before ordering.

Key Product Information
Additional Information
| SYMPTOMS | Typical failure symptoms reported on vehicles fitted with 4M8-857-916-2NH: cracked, faded, or lifting trim, missing clips, rattling or flapping at speed, road debris damage, or a gap where the trim no longer sits tight to the body. Confirm the complaint against the vehicle identification number and option content before ordering. |
| TROUBLESHOOTING | Recommended diagnostic sequence for this exterior molding (4M8-857-916-2NH): check for broken clip towers on the panel itself, since a new trim piece will not stay seated if the mounting tabs on the body are damaged. A scan tool with Audi specific coverage will show considerably more than a generic code reader. |
| INSTALLATION | Replacing 4M8-857-916-2NH calls for a proper trim removal tool and, on adhesive backed pieces, a clean surface at the right temperature so the bond cures fully before washing. Torque values differ by model and production date, so consult the factory literature. |
| MAINTENANCE | Preventive maintenance around 4M8-857-916-2NH means cleaning with a mild detergent and treating unpainted textured surfaces with a UV protectant to slow fading and chalking. A short inspection at each service keeps small issues from becoming large ones. |
| GENERAL_NOTES | Fitment note for this exterior molding (4M8-857-916-2NH): finish options such as gloss black, chrome, and matte aluminum use different part numbers on the same body, so match the trim package on the vehicle. Genuine Audi parts are built to the original specification, so fit, finish, and function match the factory component. |
| REPLACEMENTS | Associated components for the 4M8-857-916-2NH repair: clips, retainers, and adhesive tape are single use and replaced with the trim piece. Ordering the related hardware up front avoids a second trip once the assembly is open. |
