I just checked dads and its got no rust there.How many of you guys opted for endrust or similar? My au was endrusted from new and I found a tiny bit (smaller than that ba) under the bonnet.

Upon further inspection it looks as though the boot's been leaking for quite some time.Mine is a 2003 so anyone who owns an XR around these period, have a look for signs of rust.My car has done 35,000kms and so far it's had 2 diffs, a leaking sump gasket!, leaking radiator core and now rust.....<{POST_SNAPBACK}>iLL SAY IT AGAIN ford STANDS 4 FLOOD ON RAINY DAYS Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21266-boot-rust/page/2/#findComment-314506 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rik_Biel Bionic Bealie Member 271 Member For: 21y 7m 22d Location: Perth West Oz Posted 13/11/05 12:43 AM Share Posted 13/11/05 12:43 AM I think when I read the rust cover in the warranty it had 2 components - the first is just a 2 year general rust cover, the second is the 5 or 6 year perforation cover. I hope I remember correctly....I'm going to reread my warranty - if there is a general 2 year cover, I'll be getting my local panel beater to do a full assessement prior to the 2 years and hitting Ford up for the full repairs.

They should cover it under warranty, but make sure it gets fixed properly not some half arsed effort Shane Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21266-boot-rust/page/2/#findComment-314560 Share on other sites More sharing options...
