maybe the rubber seals are old and need some shun-etsu (sp?) grease?

you know where there are the black rubber seals (like the gaskets) around window or whereever you leak is. rub on with a rag and let dry

I live in san jose too if you want me to show u when you get your grease
handa-accessories.com usually come in like 2 days after you order
