| MINI2 Master | Should my Milltek Exhaust be rusting?? Well had my Milltek exhuast on since December, was brand new etc, but the tailppes are rusting like a good un, have cleaned as normal, not used nay abrasive polish or anything, but still rusting away. Best thing to do? should i just take it back and demand a replacement as it was meant to be stainless steel of a high quality which it appears not. What you lot reckon |

| Some have THICK skins!!!! | I would at least have a chat with them and give them the chance to correct the problem. I am sure they would appreciate the chance to have a very satisfied customer rather than a disgruntled one. If you don't get any joy out of them then I would start kicking up. |

Offline | My milly tailpipes also have spots of rust on them. I polish it out with silvo every couple of months ... but then mine gets some real stick from stones and stuff and also is about 40k miles and 2 years old :roll: |

Offline | just use metal polish, youll probably find little bits are dried deposits from the exhaust and road that bake on as obviously the exhaust gets v hot...........just dont polish off the bit that says Milltek ![]() ![]() |
