I can hear a noise from the motor but nothing coming out - not under the car no wet/damp carpet nothing dripping from the boot lid


Does anyone know the usual weak spots I should be looking?

Thanks.

The jet is likely blocked from a buid up of crap in the lines.
Try cleaning the jet with a pin or if you can get at it, pull the delivery line off & check that fluid is being pumped through. Then blow the jet back through from outside.
Obvious I know, but you have checked the reservoir has some fluid in it,especially if you have a separate reservoir at the back.

Known issue for these is for a join to split somewhere down in the passenger footwell give it a squirt and have a nosey down their and see if you can whiff any washer fluid.

I had this with mine.

Pull the cap off that covers the nut for the rear arm

Pull off the jet, then work the rear washer - this clears the system

Just buy a new jet, they're pence from Audi
