Does it leak when it is on flat ground. The water spray for the back window is higher than the tank in the engine bay so unless the pump is running, water won't come out. Mine leaks when it is parked on a steep hill. (Usually stuck there trying to recover myself)

In the back drivers door were the spare mounts.

it leaks when its on hills mostly but it was leaking when i was parked on almost flat ground.

I have a GQ and had the same issue, I found the valve behind the drivers side rear tail light. Nissan wanted $30 odd bucks for the valve so i got mine from Mitsubishi for $3.
Cheers

yeh i found where the valve is, unfortunetaly i have to take my draw system out to get to it. oh tru thats crazy for a valve, might see if the local 4x4 wreker has one.
