Why is there white, flaky stuff around my GT-R’s battery post?

If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your GT-R, it's likely corrosion. A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can create a white, powdery substance that builds up over time on the terminals. This buildup can interfere with the electrical connection between the battery and your GT-R’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.

How do I remove corrosion from my GT-R car battery?

Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your GT-R’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables. Once the cables have been disconnected, gently clean the terminals with a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag.
