Symptoms
Owners of 2022-2026 Audi vehicles may notice various paint issues on their alloy wheels. Common complaints include paint damage on the wheel rim, paint coming loose, or general appearance and surface defects.

Diagnosis / Trigger Conditions
Audi Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 2079732/1 highlights several factors that can contribute to an Audi alloy wheel paint issue.
