iBlob Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Hi guys, I was in and around my engine bay this evening, just checking on a few things, and I noticed a white looking residue on the bonnet latch, and around one of the battery terminals. I touched it to see if it just came away, and it felt all sticky. I had my car serviced about 3 weeks ago, and since then, this is the first time I have looked at the engine bay. I wandered if it would have been something the technicians placed on there but was unsure, so thought I would ask Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 It's probably grease - so no worries if it is & yes it should be there :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Looking at the battery you can see it's spray grease. My regular garage always does this too (including door locks and hinges) . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
