Picked up a 2017 67 plate FR today which is in excellent condition - apart from some rust under the paint on the front wheel arch
I know this used to be a problem on Golfs where VW fitted a small piece of foam to stop the plastic arch touching the metal panel and this held loisture which then started the corrosion process but i didn't expect it still to be happening many years later (thought VAG would have stopped fitting the foam by now?).
Has anyone else had this?
It should be covered by the corrosion warranty so i'll call into the dealers on monday
