Winter observations

The only issue I have had is the two rear parking sensors sticking on when it rains. Spraying WD40 into sensors clears them. It repels the water that causes the sensors to play up. Until the next time water gets in them. I have seen several others report this issue.

Maybe they could come out with tiny wipers for the sensors. ;o). I need to see Owl come out with that. @Jean Mercier could figure out how to wire them up.

Not really. I read a study a while ago and searched Google to confirm that I remembered it correctly. But if you want a cut and paste, here’s one from Wikipedia.

“It is also corrosive to aluminium in the presence of moisture. For this reason, the US Air Force banned its use as a lubricant in aluminium aircraft,[33] and discouraged its use in aluminium-containing automatic weapons.[34] Even graphite pencil marks on aluminium parts may facilitate corrosion.”
