I think it is factory rust proofing, or something like that.

u sure thats not just dirt caked on? i dont know if it came with undercoating, but if you were interested, you can buy cans of rubberized undercoating. it sprays out brown though, so its a bit of a suprise when you start spraying, but it dries black. we use that on frame rails on trucks when i detail cars at work. clean it up real good, and spray, just enough for an even coat. good stuff.

I was making a pun. That is a good .5" of oil and dirt that covers the underside of my car due to the retards who used rtv on the rubber vcg gaskets! I hope it was someones first day. Oh, and it was done at a dealership! Crawling under this car is nasty.
Thanks for trying to provide useful info though. I appreciate it when others are helpful cause each guy knows something that the next guy doesn't.

Ahhhh the British car manufacturers style of rust prevention !!

Why should you be worried if your British car or motorbike isn't leaking oil ?? Because it means it's empty !!

Nice, so it was a dealer-installed option?:p


Seriously though, been there, all too many times. :rolleyes:

Wow, this must of been a special option only offered to special customers. We should look into this :p. But really, I have a rear main leak >.x thats why mine looks like that kinda.

Mine came with that option but it must have been a premium option with the LSI model because it was a thicker substance and it also coated the inside of both front wheels as well:D

Seem's 1994 SVX"s love spilling oil :p

I must've gotten a different option on mine. I have a red tinted coating in the engine bay. I think my Brother did the install himself. LOL Really it's the Powerstearing line (since we use AT fluid)

If you don't have this option right now, just wait a couple of weeks and you too may have it. :D :)

yeah my rust proofing was power steering rack installed... its funny though all the cars i have seen that people let all that grease sit on the car when you wipe it all off it looks brand new... like a protective coating of yuck

redlinedeath 11-22-2007 06:13 PM

haha, im a little slow. similar effect if you spray undercoating on a unclean area. to a lesser extent though. mines got a thin layer of oil:) but its on jackstands right now. damn auto trannys. may as well clean the whole thing while im there!
