Might be that without your cabin fan on the air is being drawn backwards through the fan inlet from your tailgate seal (assuming no windows open)?

Is that on the drivers side? I thought it was on the passengers side?

Understatement of the year, XJKEE. You'll probably arrive right in time for the first snow dump of the year in the Brindies and in Kosciouszko.

put new pads in the front today. they were pretty sad... the rears are next becuase as i pushed the piston back into the caliper, it pushed a heap of fluid from the rear wheel. i already knew it had popped the rear cylinder tho, so its nothing new.

So the drivers side is the leaking side? May not be the drain tube then.

Pitman arm tierod arrived today as did my sway bar D bushes and lower link ones. Getting the mech to do the tierod as I don't have a suitable puller.
Going to do the D bushes Sunday arvo.
Then I need to figure out if I need new crush sleeves for the links. Mine have a lot of play in them(on the inside) and I have no idea if that is right/good/bad or neither.

Regards A
