Re: 87 5kcsq Radio and misc other problems

[PlyBoyDoct@aol.com]

<< I just bought an 87 5k CS Quattro last weekend and the radio does not work.
 Tapes play fine, but no reception in either am or fm.  The tuner acts kind
 of strange and only seeks in one direction, the scan button does nothing.
 Do I need a new radio or just an antenna? If the radio is shot does anyone
 have one for sale?

Time for a new radio

 
 windshield washer pump not working

New pump is in need.  Check fuses.

 defroster mode only even when switched to auto mode

Do  a test by pushing the Off and Outside temp button(ask the list for code
definition)

 drivers door will not unlock with key

There is a upgrade converstion kit that fixes that.  Need to take the door
panels off.

 back door latch is very stubborn

???????  vague...

 dash lights only work if the parking lights are turned on before starting
 car

I would be interested in this one too

 gas mileage computer is reading 31 mpg,  (is this right?)
 
mine gets 24mpg.  Could be right.  Check by filling up the gas tank to
FULL(about 19 gallons - 20)  And then dirve to bare min. and see what is the
mileage.
