From a 2008 TTG I'm looking at purchasing.. interstate (NSW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd personally check underneath to see if any water has got in there and if not then check the crossmember for rust and if it's only in this position I'd just use a rust repair product on that area and be reasonably happy with the situation.

Rust kill and a smear of sillicone sealant to stop further water seeping through is what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from that I think @k31th advice is sound. Just check it hasn't spread too bad yet. Is it a private sale?
