Karl92 Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Anyone have any idea why my plenum looks damp/wet ? has anyone else had this before thanks Karl Quote
GMballistic Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Has it been raining? Have you just washed the car? If you run your finger or a rag over the "damp" area is it watery, oily or does it have any noticeable smell? Quote
Karl92 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 nope bone dry and doesn't smell. texture wise it doesn't feel wet either. I thought it may be where the plenum spacer wasn't bolted down correctly but all the nuts and nice and tight so not that id guess maybe its the plenum gaskett or something i might try and replace that first karl Quote
evilscorp Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Moisture from warm engine and air gap between bonnet, probably a bit colder last night and the texture of the plenum caused water droplets to form, nothing to worry about, if it was only around the bolt holes or the very edge would I think more on the subject. 1 Quote
Ekona Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 TADTS Incredibly unlikely to be anything to worry about, if the car us running fine otherwise and you're not losing fluids. Quote

Keyser Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) Looks like oil staining to me they do do it the ally is poor quality so it may even bleed through from the inside over the years, also they seep a little and it's like damp it rises Polish the thing it will be fine after that Edited June 12, 2016 by Keyser Quote
Karl92 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Posted June 12, 2016 Thanks everyone, guess i better polish or paint it now then thanks Karl Quote
