Volkswagen Polo Service & Repair Manual: Fender Corrosion Repair Measures, in Wheel Housing Liner Contact Area
Note
| The corrosion protection in the fender seam must be applied on all
replacement parts, on which the attached seal is not already present. |
| The additional corrosion protection seal will prevent “chafe marks”
in the fender wheel housing liner. |

Apply filler to the interior and exterior areas of the fender. |
| – |
Once the filler has dried, apply and spread the Sealing Material -D
511 500 A2- in the wheel housing liner contact area (fender seam). |
Note
| The dimension -b- can vary, because the
fender has different folded edge widths. Note that the entire folded
edge is always sealed. |
| Before installing, the inner sides of the wheel housing and
the fillet plate are to be sealed with cavity sealant. |
