Windsreen washer

[woogie]

Hi all,

just got back from France today , my windscreen washer packed in over there though. I am not sure if it is serious though as the motor works . I am hoping its just the rubber hose that's come away, anyone any thoughts? How do I check it out . My car is a 996

cheers

Take the n/s/f wheel arch liner down sounds like the usual pipes blown off.

Thanks, does that mean taking the wheel off or can I do it without this?

cheers

wheel off thats the only way i know,well if you can get the wheel off depending on who service'd it LOL

Wheel off and remove inner lining, even then it's a bit of a tricky job 'cos you're working half blind. Curiously I know 'cos mine went in France as well.

If it is the pipe that's jumped off you should get a pool of water on the ground/your shoes if you try to refill it.

Yes I do get a pool of water. is this an easy job or shall I pop it along to an OPC. Do you reckon my warranty will cover it ?

isn't that to get to the headlamp washer pipe? I thought it was his windscreen washer that had stopped working?
