Volkswagen Golf Owners Manual: Underseal
First read and observe the introductory information
and safety warnings
The underside of the vehicle is coated to protect it from corrosion and damage. The protective coating on the underside of the vehicle could be damaged when driving. Volkswagen therefore recommends that the protective coating on the underside of the vehicle and on the running gear should be checked regularly and repaired if necessary.
CAUTION
- Never apply underseal or anti-corrosion coatings to the exhaust pipes, catalytic converter, heat shields or other vehicle components that become hot.
