I open mine slowly to give the water time to escape down the channel below the rear screen. There's always a few drops that end up on the higher parts of the boot carpeting but that's no big problem in my view. I used to have an S Type Jag and that would get drips going into the boot from the...
The model I have is one that in the main is a low annual mileage veh eg fair weather use etc I myself do about 4k per year. Some I have read about do about 2k a year. So the plugs in them wouldn't need changing for years, just as I say removed cleaned and replaced so they don't seize in the...
