Not an invitation, but a symptom a washer bottle problem i'm assuming...

put the water in; pisses straight out underneath. Is it a simple job to get at the wash bottle or do i have to remove giant sections of grp and airbox stuff?

Till then it's a sports bottle of evain (only best)....

Cheers!

It's a lot easier if you can get at the car from underneath (pit or lift).

Most likely the silicone hose has split or come loose.

Ton continue the piss theme, it' a piece of piss to get at the washer bottle.

Just undo half a dozen allen key bolts that hold the inner engine bay panel in place between the rad and the engine itself and lift it out. Only complicated part of the process is getting it past the rad hose but since both are flexible it's not that difficult. Once out of the way, there's your washer bottle held in place by gravity. yes

Oh yeah, and yes you will need an extra few seconds to disconnect the large hoses from the front airbox and get them out of the way.

it actually won't be if its like mine (a 2001) and since his prfile says 2003 it probably will be like mine. take the front grp piece off, then you should see the pipe that goes into the wing in front of the wheel. i had to pour the fluid down this and once the pipe filled, lift it up a bit to allow the air to escape. took about 10 mins to fill up the bottle.

enjoy

Me too, totally crap place to put it. If you take the front wheel off you can get these from removing 6 screws and a pannel, get your arm in and see if the bottle it blocked. Blood TVR's
