Lacquer peeling off
Lacquer peeling off
Anyone else having problems with the lacquer coming off of the painted plastic parts of the car leaving the paint exposed (Sepang Blue), particularly the small panels where the front wheel arches meet the door cills and the leading edge of the rear bumper (presumably initially caused by stone chipping from the tyres)? If so has anyone found a solution or is it just a case of getting a body Shop to relacquer it every so often?
Re: Lacquer peeling off
I had that with a Discovery 4 HSE recently and it turned out to be a smart repair that had been done by the dealer.
The car looked perfect to me but if you looked closely the whole bumper had been painted, Landrover knocked the warranty claim on the lacquer and I had to contact the dealer I bought it from.
After a few calls the dealer arranged for the smart repair guy to paint the bumper again
No wonder the lacquer was lifting he came and painted the bumper in the car park at work - NOT IMPRESSED
Unless you bought the car from new then it's a paint defect

Re: Lacquer peeling off
That story sound like LR. Such poor customer service, one of the reason i got ride of my RRS. Lacquer should not be peeling off unless resprayed by a monkey. Did you buy the car from new or second hand? If new you might be able to claim under the paint warrenty from audi.
