Contact Corrosion






Contact Corrosion

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

For this reason, install only connecting elements with a specific surface coating.

Also, rubber and plastic parts and adhesive consist of materials that do not conduct electricity.

Always use new parts if there is ever a doubt in quality. Refer to Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

It is recommended to use Original Replacement Parts because they have been tested and are compatible with aluminum.

It is recommended to use VW Accessories.

Damage due to contact corrosion is not covered by warranty.
