I have the smae rust in that location on my 01 X5.

It doesnt strecth as far as yours, but it is there..

Im not too worried though. Ill just use a rondell to clear it off. Prime, add a layer of glue to seal the door, and repaint it with the jet balck original color..

It'll last a loong time, and no one will ever see the paint difference in that area.



On mine it's on the right side back door.

Stupid salted roads!

Glad to know I'm not alone with this. This is a really difficult area to fix with the interior and exterior moldings as well as the door skin seam. It bothers me that it's this bad already....but I guess when you live in upstate NY you pay for all the crap they spread on the road. This state might be in a huge budget crisis, but they spare no expense for salting the roads.
