XC70 owners - watch out for a hidden rust source! By the time this rust become visible it will have eaten out some of your rear wheel wells and the sills.
You can access this spot by removing the rear wheels. Drill out the two clips and open the front side of the plastic shield. Here is where the rust is eating away.
If you use a mirror you can see the source of the problem - the clips that holds the sill protector. The rust starts from here. Then it spreads downwards and into the sills through a small opening. It will also spread on the outside of the chassis and eventually become visible.
