  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my MX-5 Miata’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around MX-5 Miata car battery terminals is called corrosion. It is caused by a chemical reaction between the battery acid and the air, which creates a white, powdery substance that can build up on the terminals over time.

  • What do I do about corrosion on my MX-5 Miata car battery? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag. Disconnect the battery cables before cleaning to help avoid the risk of electrical shock. Always reference and follow the instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual prior to disconnecting the battery cables.
