There was a metalic moving part loose inside my framework 16. I don’t have the GPU upgrade so I’ve removed the extension module and found a 1/4"x2" black piece of aluminium sheet inside the fan bay.
I would like to know where it come from and if there’s a broken piece in my laptop.
Also, closing the expansion bay was difficult, the plastic clips on the black part won’t align properly so it won’t be something I would change regularly.
Hey Dany,
Thanks for your post. I wasn’t able to recognize this mysterious part; I don’t believe it’s a component of the laptop module as it was intended.
Could you please clarify what you mean by “the plastic clips on the black part won’t align properly”? If there is a quality issue, we would definitely like to investigate further. If you could provide additional pictures showing how it’s misaligned, we can offer more assistance.
Alternatively, you can contact our support team and provide them with the pictures.
Thank you for your cooperation!
That looks like a piece of excess from parts stamping with a die.
You now have a part few have ever seen. If it was a piece of clear plastic I would chalk it up to the new effort of transparency in production…
Terrible joke, I will see myself out… 
I understand it can help framework to make a better product in the futur so I will try to explain exactly what happen but I’m not planing on buying an extetnal module and I don’t want to break my new laptop so unless it’s requested by framework I won’t open it again. So here a picture of how it look with the expansion bay properly installed…
