IMPORTANT: In vehicles from model year 2001, higher-tensile and high-tensile steels are used in certain areas.
It is essential to check whether the spot-welding apparatus used conforms to the technical requirements of the currently recommended welding sets. Should you have any questions, please contact the country-specific Hotline.
The use of technically obsolete equipment may have serious consequences for the structure of the vehicle (e.g. in the event of a crash). In the end, this can result in safety and product liability risks which can not be calculated.
