Re: common lumina problem?

Like I said a while back, sometimes you can mix up a strong soapy water mix and close the car up running with the blower on high, vents set for fresh air, and throw the mix over the car and it'll bubble like crazy when it finds where the air leaks out (and water gets in)...

Like he said above, check for seperations or rustout in the wheelwells, and some models had problems with water coming in around taillights, I don't know if Luminas were one or not...

I've been thinking lately...Tide detergent is UV reactive (glows in blacklight)...I wonder if some Tide solution and a blacklight would point out the track of the leak?? I'm gonna try it next time I get a leaker...
