glrnet Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Since I've owned the car I've noticed a drip from the front right corner (splash guard tray) when the water bottle is topped up for the windscreen washer. I suspect the front offside headlight washer bottle to be the culprit and am planning to get under the car this weekend and sort it out, is there a known fault/leak location on a 350 GT 54? Thanks.

Zugara Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 There are push/turn fittings on the bottles, maybe one of these isnt snapped together correctly? Quote
DoogyRev Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Have you given said fluid a sniff? Could be washer fluid..... could be your neighbours dog.... could be something else Quote
glrnet Posted October 1, 2010 Author Posted October 1, 2010 Thanks Jim!! Have you given said fluid a sniff? Could be washer fluid..... could be your neighbours dog.... could be something else Quote
DoogyRev Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 Always happy to help Graham Well you have to think of all the possibilities Quote
spursmaddave Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 I think the fault is that you are filling it and expecting it to stay filled, just accept the fact your car is crying... it's probably tired from running all those LED's Quote
glrnet Posted October 2, 2010 Author Posted October 2, 2010 I've checked the workshop manual for access to the washer tank and it suggests front bumper removal, can I access it without completely removing the bumper? Quote
DoogyRev Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 You can just get to it if you remove half the bumper on that side........ but bumper off is easiest. I am a dab hand at this now. should only take 10-15 minutes. Give me a shout if your stuck Quote
glrnet Posted October 2, 2010 Author Posted October 2, 2010 Cheers Jim, Going to have a go tomorrow, weather permitting, 15 mins? sounds like a doddle You can just get to it if you remove half the bumper on that side........ but bumper off is easiest. I am a dab hand at this now. should only take 10-15 minutes. Give me a shout if your stuck Quote
Zugara Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 Just remember, that the 2 bolts on the inner front wing go into a plastic nut/post and they dont take kindly to being over tightened either. All you should need is a 10mm socket 1/4" drive, a small screwdriver, flat, too lift out the plastic retainers on the inner edge of the bumper under the hood, oh, and yo will get sore thumbs getting these puppies off .
