Topix - sticky doors in cold weather

Anyone got the detail ?

SSM63057 - Evoque 2012 onwards difficult to open doors in cold conditions

(I know this is linked to an existing thread but I couldn't find it! )

My doors stick badly in the cold weather, one morning I coundn't open the rear door. It's the rubber along the top edge of the door that sticks on mine.

A silicone spray rubbed along the thin strip along the top with a bit of rag stops the water freezing the rubber to the frame, worked for me!

There must be a new software upgrade for that....

Get a Coupe. Does not stop the problem, but there are less doors to stick.

Yes it's to remove the seal & not fix the under laying problem.

I know the RRE was cold tested, but I bet it was stored in the heated test station garage over night.
