My discs (front and back) are covered in rust. Is this normal? Car is only 6 months old! Looks a bit pants tbh when you look at it :sad:
-
It won't be rust. If the discs have been wet then you'll get an orange dust on them. Will rub off as soon as you drive a bit
-
Do you mean the actual brake disc itself? If so, they all do that if the car's been parked up for a while in the wet. A quick spin down the road and they'll be clean again.
If it's the hubs you are talking about, it's a common issue, right back to the MK5 and the only solution is paint them yourself!

I have that as well Mark and it does look a bit sh!t but is usually is after I've washed the car. Usually when you drive off it does clear.

Thanks guys. Maybe I just need to give them a good wash! Or get someone to do it for me :grin:

Haha :D All brake disks do it. Just drive down the road using your brakes now and then and it's fixed in seconds.
