Post by: stevie_p on March 20, 2009, 04:17:54 pm

alrite lads how bad does wheel worm have to be on the monza II's to be replaced under warrenty?? 3 of my wheels have very small signs of wheel worm where the nuts are. would i be able to get these replaced/refurbed under warrenty? i have just under a year left and have heard that they wont touch any wheels that are kerbed. mine are fine at the mo but dont wanna wait and take a chance that i dont kerb any of em!!!

cheers

Get down to your local dealer, they should replace them regardless of how small the white worm is.

They swapped all 4 of mine with a tiny dot on the very edge of each wheel so you should have no problem.  If they so no, insist they send pics to vw who will authorise it :happy2:
