| The 100th Convertible Top Leak Post I've had a minor leak (a few drops) in the windshield pillar and noticed a greater leak in the drivers right wheel. I was going to milk this situation until I got a round to it by putting fluid in as needed but I think I may have past the point of return tonight.
As I was putting the top down the hard section locked in the upright position and the front section failed to disengage from the windshield.
Then a good amount of fluid (several ounces) came out of the windshield pillar and on to me.
I tried a few more times to get the top down but had to push (not too hard) the hard section down and was able to get the passenger side to lock but not the drivers side.
I can see how (in the owners manual) to get the top back in place and my first fix will be just to fill the reservoir but it looks like I am in for a lot of cylinder replacements in the coming weeks.
I have had a dozen convertibles and this is the most enjoyable to drive but the most frustrating to deal with, mainly because of the hydraulics.
So my question is... anyone else ever find themselves in a similar situation?
I guess I should just figure out which cylinders are leaking and set about replacing them. |
