Hi everyone

I recently purchased a 95 turbo. I love this car.

I am a real bad comunicator but i hope to learn from all of you. I have been looking through the past post to learn about the issues i have with my car, but havent found the things i am looking for so I will have to ask.

Any tips on fixing slow windows?
I sometimes get a howling with the t tops off around 55-65, any remedys?
I would like to make the castor adjustable. any one know of any adjustable srtut rods availible?

Thanks

Sorry cant really answer any of your questions but welcome to the board. Did you spray your lenses silver? Nice car, I wish I had a 95!

Any tips on fixing slow windows?

either your window motor is bad and you should get a new one. I recommend forced induction nitrous motors.....

Or you can take teh door panel off and spray a little WD40 on the hinges and what not

They pop out somehow, forget the correct way to do it. Have you tried any cleaner on them or are they dirty on the inside?

For slow windows, try the WD-40. if that doesnt work, it is probably the window motors.

And for caster. That is very difficult to adjust. Im not sure there is any way without aftermarket custom pieces made to adjust it.

Thanks for the tips! If i can get my lenses out without breaking them i would like to try cleaning them.

I was thinking of getting a cd with the sevice manual on it from ebay. anyone have one and are they a good deal? it seems like at $24 that they beat $110 from toyota for the book.

To take your lenses out, gently pry between the two pieces with the screwdriver pointed at the front of the car. They pop right out.

Oh yeah, WELCOME!!
