2.1
Contact corrosion
Contact corrosion can occur if unsuitable fasteners (bolts, nuts,
washers, etc.) are used.
For this reason, only connecting elements with a special surface
coating have been fitted.
In addition, rubber, plastic and adhesives are made of non-con‐
ductive materials.
If there is any doubt about the suitability of parts, a general rule
is to use new parts ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue.
Please observe the following:
♦ Only use genuine replacement parts which are tested and
compatible with aluminium.
♦ Only use Volkswagen Genuine Accessories.
♦ Damage resulting from contact corrosion is not covered by
the warranty.
2.2
Routing and attachment of lines
♦ Mark lines prior to removal to prevent them from being inter‐
changed and to ensure that they are fitted in their original
positions. This applies for fuel, hydraulic and vacuum lines
as well as lines for activated charcoal filter system and
electrical wiring. Where necessary, make sketches or take
photographs.
♦ To avoid damage to lines, ensure adequate clearance from
all moving or hot components in the engine compartment on
account of the confined space.
