The invention relates to a method and a device for testing an automobile plastic part. The device comprises a base plate, a positioning base, a profile normalization module and a detection module, and the positioning base, the profile normalization module and the detection module are in sequential connection and arranged on the base plate. The profile normalization module and the plastic part are uniform in shape, the profile normalization module hermetically surrounds the positioning base, and the detection module is positioned on the outer side of the profile normalization module. The method includes: embedding the plastic part into the positioning base, judging whether the plastic part is completely embedded or not, and if not, determining that the plastic part is unqualified; if yes, adopting the detection module and a filler gauge to detect dimensions of the plastic part, judging whether the dimensions of the plastic part are qualified or not, and if not, determining that the plastic part is unqualified; if yes, detecting a plane warping degree of the plastic part by the aid of a flush go / no-go gauge, judging whether the plane warping degree of the plastic part is qualified or not, if yes, determining that the plastic part passes testing, and if not, determining that the plastic part is unqualified. Compared with the prior art, the method and the device for testing the automobile plastic part have advantages of testing accuracy, high operation efficiency, cost saving, high practicality and the like.
