Rust on brake discs

[rk2009]

I've just been to buy a 1.2 Expression non-sport, I've put a deposit down and it should be here next week. One problem is though that the discs behind the alloys are literally orange with rust. Please tell me there's a way to solve this

Nice mate and yes you can solve the rust by driving the car lol, myne get's this after i wash the car and leaveit for a few day's the brakes are s*it hot for the first miles or so but after you've braked a few times it's all gone

It's just from the car sitting in the rain not getting used, will rub off soon as you brake

Happens when you wash the car too, nothing bad!

Really? They were covered in orange. I'll give it a try when I get the car. Thanks for the help.

as said, its usually when its been raining or the cars been washed and not used afterwards

At least it's a sign it isn't being raked about before you come to look at it

I can actually watch it happen on the 197. Start cleaning it with nice silvery discs and by the time its snowfoamed they are orange

The discs on mine are practically brand spankers but looking at them they look fooked.

It's good after rain you it looks like they have chicken pox

Orange is ok. When they're dark brown and rough, it means they've been sitting far too long.
