Default Has anyone noticed this w/their Z?

For some reason everytime i powershift 2nd or 3rd(chirp) a little winshield washer fluid runs down the back of my window. It really pisses me off because when i just wash it and i go alittle fast the rear window gets messed up.

A number of people have been reporting that under hard acceleration, water leaks out the rear squirter. Mine does it. Not sure if there is a fix or not.

This is the first I heard of it. Could it be a 2004 issue?

It's not just an 04 problem. I've got the same thing going on with my 03.

Disconnect the hose that runs to the rear of the car and blow the water out of it. Reconnect it and don't use the rear squirter and you should be okay.

Havent had the problem on my 04. I wish that d-- wiper wasnt even on the rear window- it doesnt lift up to clean the window when doing a hand wash job. We only have about 10 rains a year in Scottsdale - who needs it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had it but it went away. There is a fix at the dealer for it.

When ever I drove my Z around agressivly I turned the rear wiper on inbetween every shift so that water didnt run down my window and get on my freshly waxed, black Z.

Annoying as hell! For me I could just gun it in first or high in second and water would come out, that is without even shifting hard.
