I took a closer look up under the inside of the fenders. Right side dry, left side damp. So, somehow the water is getting to the inside surface of the left fender. I wiped it dry then ran a hose all over the left side of the window and drainage channels and could not get dampness back under...

I just spent some time with the trunk open pouring cups of water all around the channel and down the back window. I can't see anything yet. I agree it seems very unlikely to be the rubber gasket because the metal channel it sits on is so tall - no way rain water would get that high to the...

With this leak, maybe a cup of water would be better than running the hose! I could get really wet. The rain the last 4 days was never hard either - it was light rain hour after hour after hour. So, it's not like you have to drench the area.

Thanks a lot folks! I was planning to get in the trunk to see but then I thought, heck, why not put in the 10 year old - easier than me! Could be a problem with the neighbors, though - maybe I should put her in the trunk IN the garage! I'll do that and check the channels for cracks. I'll let...

Have you solved the problem? What looks funny to me is that the main trunk lid gasket appears to be "rolled" a little (twisted) in the section under the window. Other than that it appears in good shape - soft and pliable. It is just pushed on to the metal flange all the way around - there is...

Hemmings Classic Car Hemmings Muscle Machines Hemmings Motor News I really like the first one and will probably let the other two go.

Recently I have noticed some dampness on the floor of the trunk. Today (after 4 days of rain) I checked and there were small puddles :mad2:of water down at the front bottom of the trunk floor after you pull up the liner. What is up with this??? It has not been because of openings and closings...

Aha, the new total for 2003 is 7838, not 7839 so the overall total stays at 11,052.

Just got mine today. I am officially #2991 of 3214 04s and #926 of 980 DTRs. The DTR count now is 980. Note, the only sig is Edsel Ford II. Jon

I have the Garmin nuvi 250 and use velcro patches to stick it on the silver trim just to the right of the ignition key. You can see it well through the steering wheel. Disadvantage is I don't run the juice to it at that location - battery only - and the battery really does not last long...

Steve, You make a great point about the stock exhaust. When I went to Borlas the change was subtle but maintained the same basic approach of quiet rumble inside and roar outside. The volume is about the same as stock but the rumble and roar is just in a slightly lower frequency register. I...

I could buy the parking brake problem but the rotor problem sounds fishy to me. I had to have my parking brakes completely replaced on both sides at about 60K because (I guess) they were adjusted too tight. There was no collateral damage though. Then I replaced the rear pads because one of...

Yes, my 04 has heated lumbar area.

Howdy neighbor from the assembly line, my new number is 2991. But, you now have my old DTR number of 924. My new DTR number is 926. Jon

I just ordered mine. These will be very nice! Jon New sequence numbers, #2991 out of 3214 for 2004. So the new total number for 2004 models appears to be 3214 not 3213 - Hmmm.

I have been and still am a Dodger fan since they came to LA in 1958. That's one of my earliest memories - going to the Coliseum to see them in 1958. I used to go to a lot of games in the 70s before I moved away from LA. Dodger Stadium is a great place to watch a game. I'm still rooting for...

I have used this place for the past 8 or 9 years........... http://www.angelfire.com/va3/chantilly_steering/index.html Jim is the only one who touches my cars other than me or warranty work. Jon

I like the idea of a warm up jacket or a wind breaker to complement the leather jacket. Also, beyond the mechanics shirt, how about mechanics coveralls? I'm using an old pair of coveralls while working on the cars now that the weather is cool and it keeps the oil off my clothes!

Coming up on 5 years next week - bought brand new.
