wipers
Re: wipers
This is a small quibble, but has anyone else noticed how fricken tiny the bottle is for the washer fluid?! I was driving home on the highway and hit a whole herd of dragonflies, and when I went to clean my windshield, I got nothing. I figured the washer fluid pump was dead, but it turns out the bottle was empty. I didn't even think about it being empty, cause I rarely use it. I put some Windex in there, and I swear, the reservoir only holds about 8 to 10oz! No big deal, but I was shocked...

On a more serious note, didn't you notice the low washer fluid light on your dash?

<hr></blockquote> You know, I was thinking the same thing! No light came on then, and I just went in the garage and turned the key to the "on" position to see if the "guage check sequence" would allow me to check the bulb, but I didn't get anything. The manual says there is a light for it, but I don't recall ever seeing it. Could somebody go out and see if theirs comes on when they start their car? I guess 2003 sedans only, since 2003.5's or coupes could be different(although I have no idea why)...

Re: wipers
Turning the key to 'on' doesn't bring up the light. I've only had the light show when the washer fluid is low. Mine's a 2003 sedan.

Not here yet bro. I believe that's on a similar Japanese model but not on our G's. [img]/w3timages/icons/frown.gif[/img]

Re: wipers
I checked mine and no light. It explains in the O/M that it only comes on when the fluid is low, not when the key is turned on.
Still, Gaklid's low fluid light should have been on.

<hr></blockquote> I agree. I'll have to have the dealer check it out, but I'm not gonna take the car in just for that. I'll wait for a scheduled service and mention it then or something. Thanks for the help, fellas!

Re: wipers
I had to use the wipers heavily (past 2 days) for the first time since I have had the car (2 weeks). They are getting noisey and leaving "rubber" lines on the windshield. Any idea on what causes that?
