Certainly will...although I have spent 5 hours cleaning the car today so there is still life after.

Day 2!

I found the fronts to be not as bad as i had feared. Light surface corrosion on the wishbones, tie bars, and shock body uprights. I wiped most bits with a bit of WD40 after the clean.

I'm not planning on doing this for some time - it takes too long and the neighbours must think i'm a right anorak!

Plus one of the shiny pipes for Andyk and DazBlackCSL!!

Shiney pipes...my favourite...

Good Work. I had a ago too today, but not to the extreme of yours as I will be driving to work through some black salty back roads tomorrow. Let the sun come out, then I can happily spend some time out there with my toothbrush!

Wondering if anyone get this same problem with their APs?

After I clean the wheels (which this time I took off and cleaned thorough) they get rust like water all over the wheels after driven for no more than 1 mile.

Now I remember someone else posting this problem and thought they had a leak, but wondering if its common?

**Mark CSL** · 15-02-2009, 08:13 PM

Yes they all do that its the rust on the discs after washing when you move the car it spins on the wheels.

I hate this

so i dont drive it for about an hour then drive it in to the garage with my foot on the brake

Is this just down to the softer compound pad? Because on rear I have OEM discs and still get it.
