Thread merged with this existing one.Does anyone know what causes this? I noticed a few threads where several people had to replace very corroded positive terminals and I just ordered a replacement for mine. It seems to accumulate a green substance that covers the entire terminal. I have been cleaning it off with baking soda. I removed the terminal but I do not see any leaking from the battery. Should I just replace the battery anyway?
Thanks in advance.
I doubt the battery needs to be replaced. Perhaps a mention of this issue to the dealer is in order or you can perform some preventive maintenance.
