Just checked mine. Seems the offside vertical part is starting to detach from the rear screen.....off to the dealer I go!

I noticed the same issue during a wash about a month ago.
I reattached it and it seems to hold up well enough until now...

Had mine re-bonded whilst in for a service, the technician left a note on the job card saying that if it happened again I might need to visit the bodyshop for a new roof spoiler as it could be working the little ones loose.

Sounds strange to me!

Spotted this thread this morning and checked the rear spoiler after I washed my car. The driver's side is definitely loose! First the wipers and now the spoiler. That's not very good VW :angry:

I had mine replaced at the local dealer 3 weeks ago. They managed to scratch the top spoiler through to the undercoat and leave a razor blade between the bumper and tailgate.
I was told it was going to go into the body shop to be repainted, but 'the body shop' still haven't come back with an appointment.
Shockingly poor from the dealer.
