Contact corrosion
Contact corrosion
l  For gearboxes made from magnesium alloy, consult the → Electronic spare parts catalogue (ETKA) and observe the following guidelines.
t  The surfaces of the bolts and other parts which are in direct contact with the gearbox are made of a material which is especially suitable for the magnesium casing.
t  If inappropriate parts are used (bolts, nuts, washers...), corrosion will be produced through contact and the gearbox casing will be damaged.
t  In event of uncertainties when reusing certain parts, new parts should be installed → Electronic spare parts catalogue (ETKA).
  WARNING
t  Only use genuine Seat parts!
t  Damage produced through contact corrosion is not covered by the guarantee!
