Contact Corrosion

Contact corrosion can occur if incorrect fasteners (bolts, nuts, washers, etc.) are used.

For this reason, only fasteners with a special surface coating are installed.

In addition, rubber or plastic parts and adhesives are made of non-conductive materials.

If there are doubts about whether the parts are suitable, use new parts. Refer to the Parts Information.

• Only Original Replacement Parts are recommended. They are tested and compatible with aluminum.
• The use of Volkswagen accessories is recommended.
• Contact corrosion damage is not covered under warranty.
