I had a white 4Runner 12 years ago, it was always rustproofed every year since new, and even then, rust was forming under the wheel arch mouldings and rear tail gate. I didn't have those problems with a black Toyota pick-up and other darker cars.

Would be interresting to hear from other white X5 in the rust belt.
interesting. i know another member has a titanium silver X5 and he has rust forming also. Maybe it is the lighter colors.

either way, i got quoted $577 to get it fixed. i'm not going to kill myself over it. going in on monday to get fixed
