Vehicle Application and Placement

This door stop is designed for installation on the front left or right door, allowing for flexible application depending on service needs. The component operates in the hinge area, where it is responsible for:

• controlling the door opening angle,

• limiting sudden door "pull-away" due to wind gusts or inclines.

This solution enhances user safety and reduces the risk of damage to adjacent bodywork elements.

Technical and Functional Characteristics

The door stop belongs to the Locks and Latches group, mechanically cooperating with the door hinges and lock. The design, based on a guide and a resistance mechanism, ensures a repeatable, perceptible click during opening and closing, facilitating precise door positioning.

Key functional features include:

• mechanical limitation of maximum door opening,
• reduction of loads transferred to the hinges,
• improved comfort for entering and exiting thanks to stable door positions,
• increased control over door movement in tight parking spaces.

Condition of the Part and Benefits of Using OE Parts

The offered door stop is a used part, originating from the original Audi production line. Using an OE component ensures factory-fitment to the door structure and predictable interaction with other locking system components.

Choosing an original door stop offers several service benefits:

• maintaining compatibility with factory mounting points,
• no need for door structure modifications,
• consistent operation with existing locks and hinges.

Practical Service Application

Replacing the door stop is recommended when doors open too easily, do not hold their position, or when concerning noises are heard from the hinge area. Installing a functional part restores the correct door operation characteristics, which is important for both comfort and the durability of the entire system.
