  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my 550i GT’s battery post? A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your 550i GT car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my 550i GT vehicle battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your 550i GT’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables.
