  1. Hi there and welcome to the site You dont say whether you have had the system checked and if no problems regassed by a specialist auto air-con engineer. They will vacuum the whole system check for any leaks before refilling with gas and then adding fleurecent dye which can help find any future leaks. Air-con will not work if the gas has leaked away.

  6. Do you get any noises from the hydraulic tappets, oil changes need to be done regular on these engines, they need the 5W-30 synthetic oil. If the tappets get blocked that can cause uneven running, tappet noise, insufficiant valve clearence can cause valves to burn out.

  10. Hi again Originally a spongy material is stuck around the edge of the glass, with age this disintegrates and allows the glass to slip out of the clamps. The clamp surface is knurled to aid gripping the spongy material. The clamp screws are the torx head type which need to be tightened fully, the pressure exerted on the glass will depend on the thickness and compressability of the material used.
  11. there are two clamps on the glass, you will proberbly need two pieces off rubber to wrap around edge of glass as packing, an old inner tube will do

Please take a bit more time and check what you have written with as much detail as possible of your problem and when you can put you vehicle details into your signature so you don't have to keep typing it in and before you click on post topic click on the spell checker thats the ABC button with a tick under it and correct any mistakes. :)

  23. Hi great info provided by all in this thread especially the originator Suzuki91. I managed to do the job in just over two hours without removing the wiper mechanism from the car thanks to the thread contributors.
