w203 rust under rubber weatherstrip in boot compartment

[perdikoyla888]

Today I removed the rubber weather strip around the boot lid frame and see a lot of rust. Is this a common problem for w203 c-class? Has anyone else remove the rubber and checked it out?

All too common I understand.... Best to do a forum search, I fear you will get many hits.
