2nd question. I live in AB, which is one of the coldest region of Canada and there's snow everywhere. I know BMW X5 is a well built car, but is it worth doing aftermarket rustproofing of underbody panels? Yay or nay? Heard it may void warranty.





Thanks a lot guys!
Large parts of the X5 bodywork are now aluminium. Also the chassis is fully galvanised. I wouldn't have thought any additional rust proofing should be required. Can't remember the last time I saw a modern car with rust and I am in the UK where it rains all the time lol.
