Misc quotes:
"The brown stuff all over the underside & oversprayed onto the wheel insides is indeed Cosmoline to prevent corrosion during transport."
"Yes, there is lot's of cosmoline on the underside of the car, and it gets in the wheels, and it absolutely smells like hell when it's burning off, which takes thousands of miles."
"Take a look under the car and you will see it everywhere. And as Gator Bite stated, it smells like hell as it burns off. Running the A/C seems to make it worse."
"I got my car in Apr. of 2006 and I still get drops of Cosmoline on my garage floor from time to time, especially when the weather is warm.
First I was afraid that it was engine oil, but looking one can see that it is light yellow ( my engine oil would be dark brown by now )"
"LMAO! There's no doubt that stuff is being used. I remember it took forever to get rid of that nasty smell when I first got my CS."
Men det ser ved nærsyn ud til, at det muligvis kun omfatter Porscher, som shippes til staterne.
