Both of my covers have popped off, one of them a second time after being replaced by the dealer. This is a known problem but whats the fix?

Dealer is ordering some new ones and getting them painted but I expect they will just fall off again unless theres a modification??

Hi same prob - apart from superglue and the supposed new fix which I am waiting for on my 3rd one in as many months - which is a stronger and different clip that attaches to teh washer head - btw there are 2 of mine on the M6 southbound and one somewhere in Manchester yours if you find them hahaha

cheers tim

same with me, found one of mine in my garage - so clipped it back on.... six months later - noticed it was gone again - had recalled the last place I washed the windows/headlights, and astonishingly my wife popped out and found it... anyway, like you, a new one was ordered and painted up, and so far, has remained on - IMO the inherent weakness is the two plastic clips, not sure if there is a fix apart from replacing the whole mechanism..

I've just been to the dealer today to order two for mine,
one to replace missing one and a spare for when it happens next time!
