Default Re: rear left rotor get rust again

rust is perfectly normal part of a disk that is made from IRON. I get completely rusted disks 30 minutes after washing my car, this is normal. if you drive the car for 5 minutes, the rust will be gone and does not affect performance. IF, and I say IF, your disk is still COMPLETELY rusted after driving your car for a period of time, then your caliper is probably not functioning correctly.
