Good Afternoon members

I have just joined today, I am looking for some knowledge/info relating to the above - for a 2012, 2L  Diesel Mondeo Estate (12 reg), camber bolts/eccentric washer what is the coating made of on the eccentric washer?, and how long would this washer take to rust - very very badly where you can not see the metal on both sides at all, ie allegedly these washers and bolts were replaced 6 months ago having done only 4900 miles .

Can anyone tell me the  Ford parts number for these eccentric washer/bolts.

Is there anyway to tell/know that these are original parts on the car from 2012 ? 

Kind regards

Mark

    More than 3 years. On most cars these are still in very good condition when the car goes for it's first MOT.
