4.1 General notes on modifications to series production vehicles

The damping characteristic, braking system and steering should not be modified. Exceptions must be authorised by Volkswagen AG prior to these conversion measures being carried out.

For modifications to parts that generate noise (e.g. engine, tyres, exhaust, ...) carry out noise measurement in accordance with EC guidelines. The permissible values should not be ex-ceeded.

We recommend that custom body manufacturers/coachwork specialists include relevant service details and, if necessary, operating instructions for their scope of equipment.

Note: Subject to errors and technical amendments. The electronic version of the body guidelines is the decisive source of up-to-date data on body guidelines.February 2009
