Very normal. Disc brakes will rust in just a few HOURS in the humidity is up or it rains (at least here), and you've got the rears engaged because of the parking brake.. This is the whole reason I want some zinc plated rotors.. It won't stop um from sticking, but it'll keep the hub from rust-welding itself on!

Cool nice tpo know. Maybe I should look into those rotors as well. Like I stated it happened rarely and mostly when it snowed and i drove around then let it sit
130000 KM (80 778 miles) 2006 MS6
My turbo had to be replaced (symptoms where very dark oil and burning through 1L of oil / 600KM). Since the turbo has been replaced there's about 1/2 L gone at a time after a few fills (I check the oil every fill and on the 3rd or 4th half a liter goes missing). Oil is fairly dark still but it runs great but has a rough start once in a while. Wondering if anyone else is having similar issues. I still have MAP for another 30000KM so I want to figure out what's going on before the end of warranty.
Besides the wheel bearings being replaced and a leaky oil pan and other misc issues it's been a good vehicle.
