Domus Posted March 21, 2003 Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 Anyone else got a problem with their wheels? Whilst cleaning the other day I noticed a 3-4 inch section of flaking. No impact or scratch damage just the flaking. Two years old 30,000 miles. Contacted dealer and will call in next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nearside rear has a fuggin' great big gouge (well, that's what it looks like in my eyes) near the centre of it. Quite how it got there, I know not -- the other half is resolutely adamant she ain't driven along any tall kerbs and I sure as feck haven't. Wik.

s4dreamer Posted March 22, 2003 Report Share Posted March 22, 2003 I've got some huge gouges out of my Avus wheels, but then again, I am the UK kerbing champ (lordy help me if I can ever afford those Sportec's!). Back to the point of the thread, it's possible that the wheel was damaged in-transit and they got a wheel fixer-upper to do the work on it, but he didn't do a very good job. Alternaticely, could just be poor manufacturing. Either way, Audi should replace it for you, unless they can show that you caused the damage.
