What the ministry says is wrong

燃料装置において、燃料ポンプフィルターフランジの取付位置が不適切なため、当該フランジ部が雨水等の被水により早期に劣化することがある。そのため、フランジ部の強度が低下し、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、燃料の圧力によりフランジ部に亀裂が生じ、亀裂部位から燃料が漏れるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、燃料ポンプフィルターフランジ部に保護フイルムを貼り付ける。なお、当該フランジ部を点検し、変色している場合は、新品に交換したうえで、保護フイルムを貼り付ける。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

Source: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism website (出典:国土交通省ウェブサイト), used under the Public Data License 1.0. This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered. CarsMultiverse is not the ministry and not a safety authority. To act on this notice, use the ministry's own document.

The Japanese register on this site

アウディ elsewhere in this register

アウディ is named on 156 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 燃料ポンプ

194 notices in this register name 燃料ポンプ. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on an Audi: 160 in the register, and 425 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2017.
