hi there my e61 rusted after only 2 years. at the lip of the trunk. i went to the dealer and it was replaced without any discusion. i am living in sweden btw so we have nearly the same conditions on the roads.

strange that the dealer is doing so difficult about it.

i had also rust in my old e36 when i discovered it i went to the paint shop and they removed the rust for me and did some other stuff untill now (i think 2 years already) the rust is still gone. And it costed me 100 sek (11 euro) only.

anyway goodluck

Thank's for the reply...

We bourght the car in Sweden, when it was brand new, since we lived in Stockholm during that time. Two years ago we moved back to Denmark again, so I might contact BMW Sweden, instead of BMW Denmark. The rust-protection warranty is 12 years in both Denmark and Sweden, so I'm gonna try with a letter to BMW Denmark first. If that dosen't help, I'll contact my old BMW dealer in Stockholm, where we bourght the car back in 2004.
