Description / Abstract:
This standard covers the performance requirements of decorative
plastic parts used in engine compartment automotive applications as
well as applications near the exhaust system. The parts may be
functional within themselves or they may be a subassembly of, or
attached to, metallic, decorative or functional parts.
Note: Additional requirements for coated or
painted plastic parts (e.g., emblems, painted engine covers) are
given in the relevant performance specifications, not by this
specification.
Note: All materials used in parts or components
in contact with the air of the interior compartment must
additionally conform to the interior requirements as specified in
GMW14444, Code E.
