Default All 4 Lowers have rusted - will Audi pay for this?
It's been a tad over 5 years on my Avant and all 4 lowers have rusted. The metal strip inside that is. Crumble to the finger type rust. I have not contacted Audi yet, but am hoping they will pay for this. Ya right - who am I joking!

Yeah, but I doubt it covers the trim bits...just the body.
