RossG Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 If I remember correctly, there was an issue with rusty hubs in the GTI forum a while ago. Maybe they know if it is something that VW fix under warranty. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin64 Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 I have only done 1200 miles in my new R32, but I think I may have the same problem eventually. Let me know how you get on with VW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32Geordie Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 wow -I can't believe this, I was just about to post this topic!! Was gonna wait till I'd took some photos but yes 5000 miles old MkV R32 has rusty hubs on the back wheels. I can remember silver hammerite-ing back hubs on my old VR6 but that was when it was 2 years old. Wonder if this is under warranty..? Anyone know the score..?

Paddy_Driver Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Think the general consensus on the GTI's was that dealer would not be interested... its just more prominient when looking through the 18's Monza's on the GTI's and more and more seem to have it. Am fairly sure if more take a closer look then they may find similar problem unfortunately. Paddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
