anyone else have this problem? When i go WOT my rear window sprayer leaks fluid...

sounds gross, but its almost like the car get's excited and.. well, you know.. lol

the other night when i left the drag strip my back window was full of windshield fluid..

this is more of an annoyance than anything else... but if anyone has had this problem and knows how to fix it please chime in...

 

This is a common problem IIRC. I think most people just d/c the hose that runs to it.

 

OMFG !! dude, you too? I was auto-xing a couple weeks back and noticed fluid all over my rear window too.

Weird.

 

wow nissan qaulity sucks.....time to buy a chevy

 

yea right...mine has that problem too though

 

There was already a thread on this last month. It happens to pretty much all of them. Mine does it too. No big deal, just a little drool on the back.

 

i searched but could not find anything... but cool.. i guess i will just live with it..

thanks for the replies..

 

My Z did the same thing.

 

Same here... Is it possible to get it fixed under warranty by Nissan? What's involved? Might be a simple DIY...

 

I get this too, maybe you could just disconnect the hose or just plug the end. I don't think I've ever used the rear window washer fluid.

 

WOT=fluid washer FTL!!!

 

That would be a glitch in the rear window washer pump that is on the Res. or the fact you have 12 feet of line that is full of fluid and enertia is just doing it's thing. Thats all u can do ---plug it at the nozzle

 

Mine stopped doing this a long time ago when I was getting my oil changed. The service guy came to the waiting room and told me there were several TSB's (such as stronger springs on the hatch) that they would fix for free if I was willing to wait. I wasn't having any problems, but wanted to use that time to test drive a Roadster, so I said wtf and told him to go for it.

I do not know ALL the things they did, but now that I read this thread and think back, mine used to do that too... UNTIL they did all those TSB's while I was on a test drive. Maybe, just maybe, one of those things included fixing this issue?

It hasn't happened to me in so long I forgot it was ever an issue. Can't hurt to have them look it up for you.

 

Holy **** lol mine does the same, i was going nuts, you dont want that **** running down the window after you just cleaned the **** out of it. Hasnt done it in few days but i only use the my jets front and rear if my car is already dirty. I never use them if my car is clean, then you get the damn water marks and stuff.

 

I stopped using the rear squirter right after getting the car and seeing that it dribbled regularly. Once the feed tube drys up, it won't be a problem anymore.

 

I've never used my rear squirter and its been leaking for 2 years.

 

wow...sounds like a nice service dept for them to like fix the tsb without you even asking for it.

 

They are AWESOME. We have a great raport and they are mod-friendly too. The sales dept. is horrible, but the service guys more than make up for that.

In spite of how much I dislike the sales staff, I'll buy my next Z from them just because the service dept. guys rock and treat me like a king (even though I'm more like the jester).

I can't say enough good things about them. They treat me like family. They sold me my NISMO exhaust for a loss to beat the GB price here. They are constantly offering to go above and beyond and I give them mega-props every chance I get.

 

Just when i thought it stopped leaking.... washed car today and stopped by dealership with friends at like 1am to check out the other colors i could have gotten lol and was like WTF! saw it on my back window, weve come to the conclusion the car **** itself when i floor it from sheer excitement. Love how dealerships leave their cars open, I could have taken all new floormats and any peice i wanted from a Z, no cameras around either. Stopped by Honda 2 lots over and their s2k was locked and didnt have antenna.... not saying i would have taken it... haha, love them, stopped by with friend one night and sat in porsche they had out, i guess a lot of dealerships leave the doors open. I saw Honda had a camera. Hah some jealous people such as my brother call my car impracticle.... then i saw the s2k and was like yea ok and im impracticle lol. Hes mad hes driving a new Max with same car payments as me and i have half the insurance and 7 years younger than him... BAM!
