Windshield washer reservoir leaking?
Anyone had a leak from the windshield reservoir leaking? Just noticed a leak when I got home, going to work on it tomorrow. Seems like it is either the pump or maybe the connection from the filler tube to the reservoir. Puddle is under the front passenger tire and a slow drip.
Will report back once I take it apart and see whats up.

Sure was the pump. Took everything apart tonight and will replace in the AM. Quite a pain in the ass to get to. Worst part are the rivets on the fender liner.

Just finished replacing the pump…. Couple of quick notes, if anyone stumbles upon this and has questions, feel free to PM me.
Overall a pain in the ass to get to as you have to remove the fender liner and there are a couple of rivets. My suggestion, but new rivets and just rip the old ones out, no sense in trying to spare them. When you put the new pump in, there are two sides to the pump that have hoses attached. There is a smooth hose and ribbed hose. Smooth goes towards the front and ribbed in the back. If you flip/flop them, you’ll scratch your head and get pissed for a few hours trying to get everything back in to place without it leaking. Overall not real fun, but if I had to do it again now knowing how to do it, would probably be an hour or two. I spent a hell of a lot more time than I should have the first time around. Will probably buy another pump to have it on hand for the future.

I just created my account to try to PM you but apparently I can't do that with a new account. I saw your other post on another thread and besides taking the wheel off and splash shields, what else do I need to know? What part am I supposed to purchase? Thanks in advance. |
