Rust problems
Hi guys just had to do some major work to the front inner fenders on my 03 crossfire . I noticed rust stained water marks on both inner fenders . On closer inspection I discovered major rust holes on each front side . I spent two days fabricating and welding patches . I wondered has anyone else encountered the same problem

Re: Rust problems
New to the Forum so I don't know how to do all the tricks. You will notice by my age I grew up without computers. All I know is I really like my car "as is " .

In 1976 I saw a 1972 Ferrarri Daytona parked on the streets of O.C. N.J. that had huge rust holes in both the drivers and passengers doors the size of my fist. |
Re: Rust problems
I too just did the same repairs. Though i used fiberglass to make the repairs, don't have a welder.
the rust i found was under the seam sealer, around the shock tower housing. |

Re: Rust problems
my xf is an 03 also and I have just done the same repairs on both sides of the car and again it was on both sides of the suspension turret, also I had light surface rust on the lips of all 4 wheel arches.

Re: Rust problems
Look under the doors for rust, this area is prone to rust very early.
Click for an old thread on the subject. We are going to see a lot of people respond to this problem. |
