Wheels: Service and Repair
Wheel Centering Seat, Protecting against Corrosion
Applies to light-alloy and steel wheels
When a wheel is changed, the centering seat should be sprayed with
Wax spray D 322 000 A2
In order to prevent corrosion between wheel centering seat and rim.
-
Remove wheel.
-
Thoroughly clean the centering seat on the wheel hub and the centering surface on the rim.
-
Apply wax in area of centering -arrow- using a brush.
Always make sure that only centering -arrow- is waxed and not rim contact surfaces. As a consequence, the brakes would become contaminated
while driving and thereby result in poor braking.
CAUTION! Wheel bolts, contact surfaces of wheel/wheel hub and the threads in the wheel hubs must not have wax applied to them. Never
apply lubricants or anti-corrosion treatment to threads in wheel hubs.
-
Install wheel and tighten.
