LINES, ROUTING AND SECURING
When removing and installing hydraulic and pneumatic lines or electrical wires, make a sketch or take a photo to remember the original installation locations.
CONTACT CORROSION
Contact corrosion can occur if incorrect connecting elements (bolts, nuts, washers, etc.) are used.
For this reason, only connecting elements with a special surface coating are installed.
Furthermore, all rubber or plastic and adhesive are made of non-conductive materials.
If you have doubts about the reusability of parts, use new parts from the replacement parts Information.
Note. It is recommended to use only original replacement parts as they have been tested and are compatible with aluminum. It is recommended to use Audi accessories. Warranty does not cover contact corrosion damage.
