I just checked my window sticker, and it says "12 years rust perforation warranty included"

Does this means the rust must be making a hole before they will fix it under warranty?

I would think BMW will fix it for you if your rusts were not results from a scratch that you made.

The hubs on most BMW's always looks rusty.

But yes the dealer has a special tool to clean the hubs ( at least they are supposed to have). The procedure is listed on their TIS system
