    My cars still at the body shop. It needs both sill panels completely replaced. They are both on back order. Must have been really badly corroded.

    When i got my A4 it had a little rust creeping on the inner front wing edges. I took it a local body-shop and spent a few quid getting it fixed. I then undersealed the inside of the wings to stop it happening again. I figured this was easier and less stressful than chasing VAG for months on end.
    Won the day mate new wings on Monday .

    Is anyone still around on this thread? I got my claim refused today by vw. I am willing to pursue the case. But just wondering if a small claims case is the way forward? What do you guys think?

    The newest 3B is now 13 years old, on what basis are you going to pursue this?

    I didn’t realise is was specific to the 3b, I thought it was about the 12 year warranty on the arch corrosion! Iv read so many posts, just trying to navigate effectively

    The warranty applies to all VAG products, the problem affects cars like the Golf 4, 5 and Passat 3B, this thread is specific to the 3B, which car do you have?

    I have the same problem on both my front wings of my 2007 GTI which is immaculate. They called me in and inspected the car, agreed to have the car back for 4 days and carry out the work. Now while they have the car I hear VW have refused the claim as the car is too old . and the well documented previous replacements under "goodwill" have stopped. I'm currently in discussion with VW customer care but i will be disputing this, so any further info would assist. Thanks
