2012 VW Touran rear suspension corrosion

[Mogul]

Is this level of corrosion typical on a 7yr old, 60,000 mile car?

Thinking that I should just slap some waxoyl on it and forget about it.

Yorkshire then Devon.

Good work!

Our Touran is just a family hack.

I was just surprised that no advisory showed up on the MOT history given the appearance.

I have unloaded a small can of black waxoyl on the worst of it which will do for now but in next year’s MOT, the inspector may take a dim view on that.

You’re not wrong.
