They are redoing the roads at Doran beach and I ended up driving through a really fine powder and got worried when my suspension stated singing to me in a chorus of squeaks. I asked a construction worker what the powder was and he told me "concrete".

I am an idiot.

I washed the car off really well when I got home and clay barred it followed by a wax, but I am worried about my power plant and drive train. Does anyone know about this stuff and what should I do?

 

Check your air filter, change if needed or shake out the concrete dust. Pray that you are not using a K&N...

If paranoia still persists, change oil & filter. Re-grease your sway bar bushings? air gun the struts, etc.?

It's probably no worse than the crap we all drive thru every day any way. You just got a concentrated shot of it.

 

Make sure you clean the underside really well in all the nooks and crannies. You don't want droplets of water hardening that concrete powder
