    How concerned should I be - falling apart?

    Not 100% sure but this might be due to water draining from the A/C, in addition to salt from roads. I noticed this area dripping water when A/C is in use on my vehicle. Last oil change I cleaned rust from area and painted.

    I was thinking of some light grinding of weld before. I don't know for sure but it looks like whatever material they use for electrode was subpar. Seems to look porus in spots. Figured a light grind (only around leak area) would make sure nothing else would flake off. Not going to drain and yes...

    Just wiped it down. Will let it sit for a few hours then report back. 99% sure it is coming from plug. I did examine surface after draining and it looked fine.

    rear wiper not working

    People tailgating would back off, worked like a charm every time. For the most part they wouldn't realize washer fluid was coming from reversed rear nozzle. Had a few rice rockets following close they got pissed gave me finger then quickly passed.

    rear wiper not working

    Not into rear washer/wiper I always trip it (accidentally) when using front wiper. I'm afraid of wiper moving when window is dirty then scratching glass. I was thinking of an override to disable motor but leave washer enabled. With washer still enabled you can hit rear wash button without wiper...
