Have you checked to see if your cable for the temperature is set right? The HVAC cables were all messed up on mine when I got it

Your vent is plugged. It is at the rear of the drivers door opening. You have to take off the plastic cover that goes around the door catch. I would put a metal roll over valve in place of the factory check valve while you are in there

The Bosch Icon 22a is a perfect fit if you need to replace your wiper

I put in the Cornell Customs primary spring and spacers. <$100 and worked pretty well. Much smoother takeoff and less rpm.

That is the cab vent to let pressure out of the cab. You will hear it when you slam the door. The cabs are sealed up OK but not perfect. I have seen several people seal it up and didn't complain afterwards. I have seen in other vehicles that not having enough of a vent will reduce the amount of...
