I just took a look at my car today and noticed the windscreen seals are peeling back on both sides

I took a photo to show what i mean... don't mention the fact my car needs a wash :)

I haven't noticed water leaking into the car yet, but i figure it's prolly not a good idea to leave it as is. Should i get it fixed? And if so where can i get it done?

:D

Is it bad enough to warrant new seals yet though? It's not like i want to wait till it's a serious problem, but if it's not a big deal yet i won't bother. Thanks for the recommendation though!

Hard to say without seeing them in the flesh/rubber,LOL! Terry will be able to tell you within seconds of seeing it the best way to attack the prob'.

Ditto above... I had a little bit peeling out.

Just got some silicone, just ran my finger along the rubber to put a thin coat on, and pushed it back in. Havn't seen it since. :rofl:

mine was doing the same thing, so i threw it away, lol.

it looked feral and i didnt want it so i chucked it in the bin, it looks better without anything there and i've never had a problem with any kind of water getting in, in over 8months or so.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
