[Peugeot-L] 405 Mi16 - rust prevention treatment has great sound deadening too...

Hey all,

I just had front brake calipers and brake lines replaced on my '89 Mi16 (which in turn killed the 18 yr old brake master cylinder, which also got replaced) and my mechanic showed me what looked to me like a serious case of terminal undercarriage rust.

Thankfully, much of it was very superficial, and they scraped the entire undercarriage, including the frame, and coated everything in a rubberizing and rust inhibiting spray protectant. The stuff did a nice job...

I was amazed that evening when I drove the car how much quieter it was...even the 60-70mph engine drone seemed to lessen.

Just thought I'd mention it as something that seems to provide a double benefit to our aging (and not exactly sound proofed) Peugeots.

Best,
Paul Hughes
