The BMW bodies shells are dipped and treated during the production process
It seems that all these rusty bits come from the parts suppliers to BMW.
I doubt these parts would arrived rusty at BMW and were still installed.
It seems that the parts supplier has saved a few bucks here.
The metal parts would be cleaned before installation, so it appears that they have gone rusty once the car has left the production and is now exposed to the elements. This points to the supplier not coating them during their manufacture.
We should all check these problem spots and report them to our dealers so that BMW gets the feedback and can rectify this during service.
I will be checking mine thoughout when it arrives
