Hey Wildcat, hyperdrive found that my rear wipers motor for the water spray is the wrong one :/ (it wasn't working, and still isn't :huh:)I have no idea why there is a wrong motor in there.

When my S1 arrived the rear washer did not work. The fronts were fine and the same pump is used for both.

The line to the rear wasblocked. You can get to it by removing the rear cover and the rubber gromets in the body and the tailgate. Disconnect the line and pump through and clean nozzle.

If that doesn't clear it and the pump motor works it would have to be the solenoid that opens the pathway for the water, or the line is blocked closer to the pump I have not got a clue where the solenoid is at the moment, but will search if you need more info.

Cheers 66yo. :):nuke:

I think I have stuffed up.lol

I checked again and it seems like there are two motor sounds when both washers are on together. Check and listen. Ifyou can hear the motor work when it should the it could be a blockage at the rear nozzle.

Its quite easy to get to the line via the cover and grommets in the back .

Cheers 66yo :nuke::/

:huh::)

While we are talking rear wipers...

Take a look at the length of mine! I have the fuse removed so it can't be turned on, if it is it just tries to smash the squirter nozzle off tailgate, pretty funny but a little scary at the same time. The wiper arm has Toyota stamped into it so it's wrong in more ways than one!

Anyone have a spare rear wiper arm? Or one they would be happy to part with? I will post a WTB in the trade section but will not be holding my breath...

Cheers

Far out Munch, thats a bit big... although I have to agree with who ever put it on... piddly little wiper on the back :P

66yo I think the problem is with the motor that runs the water, its the wrong one, The back wiper works and the fronts work with the washers.

I'mTOTALLY confused.

Is it correct to say (1) The front wipers and washers work

(2) The rear wiper works but the washer does not

(3) The rear washer works but the wiper does not

(4) Nothin' f**kin' works?

(5) Caus its pissin pick handles and I forgot to change the HW from solar to electric

we have all had to have cold showers and its buggered my night life.

(6) And if thats not enough the boys and I, successfully fitted a new water pump and

timing belt into a 180.

(7) God is good to NISSAN drivers.

Cheers 66yo. :D:D

how can the rear window washer motor be wrong? surely any washer motor will work with the 2 wires connected. i got both washer motors sitting in my garage doing nuthin (cant fit washer bottle with cooler piping), but i might need them later on. how about buy a new one stagea girl from nissan? they wont be much $$$ i'd imagine.

Yes it was a very easy job...(for the hubby) :laugh:

Was just a matter of pulling the cap off the wiper arm and tightening the nut... :laugh:

Little embarrasing after all that worrying to find that it was about a 5minute fix job..but at least now i have a working WINDOW WIPER :laugh:

:laugh::laugh: for everyones help and advice much appreciated

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
