I live in Michigan, and i have that issue with my front door inserts as well. Any luck with that yet?

Other forum members have been successful in getting it covered under the warranty. The next time the car is in for service I am going to ask. I will keep you posted.

I made an appointment this coming Monday the 24th at the stealership (Audi of Rochester Hills), so we'll see how it goes. Hopefully my muffler delete wont void the warranty.

The dealership told me its not sheet metal thats rusting and its not covered by the warranty. That was the service manager. Let me know how your try goes.

Try this guy:
http://zeckhausen.com/

Dave used to be a regular on a lot of the boards, and not sure if he still is. I got pads from him long ago. Very knowledgable and I thought he was in NJ. He used to post a lot of picks and work he did on his car and others. He would likely know someone who could help.

Best of luck.

I ordered a set of Adam's Rotors and Akebono Ceramic pads a couple months ago and I am pleased. I did the install myself. I also have a great independent shop for things I cant do myself or dont have the time for.
