Mine has the same tensioner/pulley as the 850s did - this how-to is not for the late '98 through 2000 cars. One of the things I learned is, water pump and tensioner are suggested to replace eve...

As you probably know, those are the mounting holes for the roof rail bolts. They are a tar type, I guess, 'self-healing' type material so that when the bolt passes through it, it seals against the threads to stop it leaking. I've seen it leak there on roof rails as they age also. Thanks for the educ...

Seems to have been fixed by using better quality contact cleaner for the instrument cluster harness connector, one that removes oxidation and not just contaminants. Hopefully this helps someone.
