Rust is not common on BMW 2 Series models, but poor maintenance and damaged paint can lead to rust formation, especially in coastal areas like Karachi.

✅ Common Rust-Prone Areas:

Wheel Arches & Undercarriage – Water and mud accumulation accelerate rust.
Door Edges & Hood Corners – Scratches o r chipped paint can expose metal to moisture.
Trunk Area & Sunroof Frame – If rubber seals leak, water can enter, leading to rust.
🔹 How to Prevent Rust?

Wash Your Car Regularly – This removes road salt and dust that cause corrosion.
Apply Underbody Coating – A rubberized undercoating protects the undercarriage from rust.
Fix Paint Chips Immediately – Touch up any scratches o r chips to seal exposed metal.
Use Anti-Rust Spray on Vulnerable Areas – Protect areas like door hinges and bolts.
