Hello all was created by guttercat
I bought my Jimny last week. It's a 2006 JLX+ with only 7500 miles on the clock.
Previously owned by a Glasgow pensioner who only ever used it to go to the shops in the wet.
There isn't a mark on it, and I doubt it's been offroad... yet ;-)

First time I parked it "nose up" the rear washer leaked.
Thanks to this forum I already know the solution.

Q. Anyone got a howto for removing the tailgate trim panel & replacing the non-return valve? Without busting all the clips & such? If not, I'll do one and post it - with the moderator's approval of course.

Tool bought from Amazon (£1.97), part 38496-61A00 bought from the main dealer (£1.93). Job done in less than half an hour, and problem solved thanks to this forum :-)

Where do I post my "howto"?

Alright for me to post a picture of my wee beastie here? >>
