^^ Like in the Eclipse I think they may make some kind of bug remover type of windshield washer fluid that may be green. Check her coolant hoses/lines for a crack or pinhole cuz it cold be spraying all over the place or getting blown back onto the shock while she is driving.

I know the Rendezpuke has a rear wiper and sprayer but not sure if it has a separate reservoir or not..maybe she has a pinhole in her rear sprayer line or if it does have a separate reservouir for the rear wiper then it could have a small crack in it.

well i stuck it on the lift at work today, looks like my parents are gonna be in the whole a little money wise. the fluid i found on the shock is just that, shock fluid. the air ride suspension busted. so thats gonna set them back about 300-400 bucks. also, the puddle on the floor i found that looked like coolant was air conditioner die, to find a leak in the system. apparently the condenser is gone and there is a huge leak in the system. theres another 5-600 bucks. o well, glad im not payin for it

ya only the 03 and 04s did I think. I is sopposed to kick on under boost and spray the front of the IC or you can put it in manual mode and spray when you want it too. makes no noticable difference of than when stopped you here the motor for it if you hit the manual button

lol, she needs a big cheap piece of crap lol. actually its been a pretty decent car with no problems since we got it in 2002, i guess its just a coincidence that these two problems occured in the past 2 weeks
