chipandpin Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 I beleive this has been a problem on GTi's- any advice greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSheds Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yes it has been discussed, not heard of anybody asking their dealer to sort it out under warranty though. A few people are re-painting the hubs themselves & re-laquering. Others are leaving if not too bothered. Seems to show more on the GTI because of the more open wheel pattern than your wheels. Rusty hubs look tatty imo if left. Many happy returns by the way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Its a common problem on alot of cars. I bet most mecanics in the workshops would laff at it if it came in as a repair as its not really a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petsy Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 so there's still time for the problem to crop up but for your sake I hope it doesn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
