Over the last week or so,,, we did the full power steering hydro boost system flush and fill. Had all 4 tires balanced and rotated. Oil change, Air Filter, and a quick detail for upcoming trip. Discovered my front driveshaft is both seized and has both bad u-joints. Run tires up to 55psi, and...

I do use the rainX wiper jiz,,, what I'm wondering is maybe the wiper motor, at 180,000 miles is getting enough play in the parts, to cause this. Either motor it self, or maybe the little plastic cups on the linkage
Arms. It has only really started over the last few months. Annoying for the...

ater it rains,,, the one will bite,, on easy braking for a few miles,,, then clears up. I did the bigger wheel cylinders a year or so back,,, but think maybe the axle seal is leaking,,as the old whl cyl's were not wet at all.
