Hi guys,
mrs Silver's 2002 C180 is starting to show a bit of brown on both rear arches, just at the bottom where the panel ends.
Service history is not all MB.
I previously took the car to an MB panelbeater who told me the car had been painted, so no MB contribution.

The question is, what should I do?
Get it looked at now or wait untill it gets more noticable then get it fixed?
Anything I can do myself?
As usual, thanks for your input, Colin.
 
IMHO and recent experience if you do not have full MB service history on the car MB will not support your claim. First thing they asked me for was service history book then the pictures of the affected areas. My W203 is just about to be treated for the second time in 7 months in the same areas as yours. -:(
