    rock chip on windshield

    Update: My replacement rain sensor arrived yesterday, I installed it this morning, and the intermittent wipers are now working correctly. So, if you are having a windshield replaced I'd ask them beforehand if they will be replacing the sensor, and if not I'd have one available and ready to hand...

    Latest OTA update?

    Last week I got a message that an update was available. I clicked the install now button and the install began. Came back to the car 30 minutes later to a message that the update failed. Tried the "check for updates" menu item but it was grayed out. A couple of days later I got another update...

    rock chip on windshield

    According to my workshop service manual, the rain sensor is a single use item and is supposed to be removed and discarded, then replaced with a new one when the windshield is replaced. It must also be installed with no air gap between it and the glass. Removal: 22. Windshield Outside...

    rock chip on windshield

    The sensor is accessed by removing the plastic trim behind the mirror and it is held in place against the glass by a piece of spring steel. I already removed and re-seated my sensor and it made no difference.

    rock chip on windshield

    I have the same exact issue with my Safelite replacement windshield. When I turn the wipers on intermittent they wipe twice, stop, and then wipe continuously even when there's no rain hitting the windshield. I have to turn them off manually before they will stop. And you are correct ... it's...

    What did you do to your 21+ T1XX today?

    I live in Florida, and a couple of years ago I was visiting my original home state of New Jersey on vacation. I was driving my personal vehicle which has Florida tags and also has front tinted windows. I was pulled over by the police and the reason was that front tinted windows are illegal in...

    What did you do to your 21+ T1XX today?

    It's not illegal in the entire US, each state has it's own regulations. In Florida the front door windows can be tinted up to 28% visible light transmission and the windshield can be tinted above the AS-1 line (the very top of the windshield) with non-reflective tint only. Tinting below the AS-1...

    Rock Auto

    They once shipped me someone else's part instead of mine, the packing label inside the box even had the other person's name and address on it. I contacted them and they authorized a return. I returned it and then they denied the refund because the part I returned wasn't the part that I ordered.

    RE: Parking garage clearances -- How tall are our trucks?

    I had a vinyl sticker made that I adhered to the back of my driver's side sun visor as a quick reference. I researched AND measured all the heights, and added 2" to each one just to make sure.

    Max fan when starting

    That's what they do, by design. Mine starts on max speed until the temp drops to the selected degree setting and then it slows down on it's own ... automatically. To stop this from happening, take it off the auto setting.
