Martrack Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Hi, Is it normal / expected to have these sort of "stains" on the engine metal of a brand new Exige ? Why ? Any way to "clean" them ? Thank you 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark030358 Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 It’s oxidisation…. Common on aluminium, usually when it has been wet. Try scotchbrite pad and maybe some metal polish. But it will come back. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martrack Posted April 24 Author Report Share Posted April 24 Understood Mark, many thanks for the info 👍 I then assume that all Exige engines are subject to this issue, sooner or later ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Paul_D Posted April 24 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 24 Yep. Better to just accept it now. I try and keep the LOTUS writing on the supercharger cover nice, but I think even I’m going to give up on that, never mind the rest of it. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toqcars Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 Yeah, but not just an engine, other parts as well. Just make sure not to check the front uprights 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martrack Posted April 25 Author Report Share Posted April 25 Many thanks @Paul_D & @Toqcars for your comments 👍 Rather reassuring 🙂 I'll then (unfortunately) accept it now, and concentrate on other things 😉 Thank you again ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
