It's a normal condition, good that they changed it for you. I've noticed this on most 328 but not all, hopefully they changed the materials

Good for you Zubaidah. Mine was complained a few weeks ago and they refused to replace. Was told by the Head of Customer Service that it is normal and shall not hampered performance thus they put anti rust to it. Wondering why different approach.

Agreed with maroonbug...it is normal as I have the same brownish color on the exhaust. It is not rust I think its metal oxidation.
