  1. Pay no attention to Nipper. The man is daft and will say anything to get his 10,230th post!
  2. Last time I had my windshield re-replaced, the tech commented about the earlier job where they used silicone and that this was not the proper material and could lead to rusting? Anyway, Permatex makes one specific compound. Google auto glass sealant. Hell, you might as well break the glass yourself for that money.
  3. Well from a read of the Craig's list ad, this "li'l lady" seems to know her way around the yard... talkin' up the 2.2 and that you could "part it out"...
  4. Have you checked to see if the nut was loosened? Step 1. unloosen nut if that fails, Step 2. apply teflon tape then unloosen nut:dead:
  5. Wife created same condition by operating wipers w/o clearing snow. Tightened nut, kissed wife. All is good.
  6. Geepers, you folks out there in "hither, yon" are very patient. You first posted this problem over a year ago:eek:
  7. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22394&highlight=leaking+windshield+washer+fluid Found the above with the Search function. Mentions part# from Nissan but the last post also links to http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20595&page=1&pp=10&highlight=rear+washer and Ferret references a check valve in the rear pillar.
  8. phew... my 2000 Legacy had both HGs replaced under warranty and my 2005 OB, well... as the fellow falling from the skyscraper was heard yelling while passing each floor... "so far, so good!"
  9. Not sure that this year was within the official range of HG 100,000 mile/8yr. extended warranty but I certainly would pitch a bit*h to get it covered.
  10. Not sure of your model year but our 2005 OB blew both headlamps in quick succession and were replaced under warranty apparently being an issue with factory installed bulbs from a bad lot.
  11. Use the SEARCH function on the site as this has been covered. As I recall, sitting in the driver's seat, turn ignition key to the ON position but do not start the car. Then buckle and unbuckle the driver's seat belt rapidly for 10-15 times and then while the belt is buckled, turn the key off and remove the key from the ignition, unbuckle and then exit the car. The next time you put the key in, it will chime a few times and then stop. This worked fine on my 05 OB and the above is the procedure as best as I can remember but as I said, check the site's SEARCH function for "seat belt chime". I found the link: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=57945&highlight=seat+belt+chime
  12. God awful weather and conditions up there in T'rntoe, Mr. Badorties. Really, can I call you H, as experienced a man as you in the workings of a fan should know that lubrication can't hurt. I think gbhrps covered the nitty gritty for you if you decide on a full assault. Still might be time to search the detritus piles of civilization as your avatar's namesake Horse might do and see if a used replacement is on hand. Thanks for reminding me of a good book I read... 30+ years ago! BTW, what is life like in the Waterloo/Kichener area? Just checking out travel there from NYC with a possible change of venue.
  13. I saw a front view of this and it reminded me of Gort from the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still.
  14. Did you try disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes and see if that clears the old code? What did the 3 long 5 short flashes indicate on the code sheet for your Model and year?
  15. In the interst of scientific discovery, you could call then your own cell # and ask the new "owner" if any heat was detected when initially "acquiring" the phone.
