Contact corrosion
Contact corrosion
Contact corrosion can occur if unsuitable connecting elements (bolts, nuts, washers), rivets, plugs, grommets, adhesives, etc. are used.
For this reason, the manufacturer only fits connecting elements with a special coating (see e.g. currently greenish colour of certain bolts). In addition, components made of rubber and plastic as well as adhesives which are not electrically conductive are used.
Always use genuine parts!
If you have any doubts about the reusability of certain parts, always use new components.
Accessories must have been approved by Audi AG.
Damage caused by contact corrosion is not covered by the warranty.
