melting washer fluid holder

[maddog-uk]

Anyone else had this happen! Mine spring a leak on the way home from collecting my car from being in storage! Car running lovely, just a tad odd!

PS returning to the car is like buying one all over again!! So happy and soooo loud!!!

Its simon Dave!!

We have been in South America on holiday so no complaints!! Missed the car mind!

What do you mean by holder? The widget that holds the bottle to the chassis or the tube that transports the fluid from the bottle to the wipers?

I mean the whole bottle is leaking. I noticed it just rests on the holder and the holder on mine wobbles. Its either cracked or melted not sure which and the water just seaps out when its under pressure ie full!

from memory(mines have a Volvo taken out of its arse at the moment) there is a little wire dohhicky sensor thing at the base-could that be the source of theleak. Bracket is prety rigid. Just a thought

Ok it was nothing too sensational, turned out the non return valve was cream crackered, so the tvr centre came out tops and quickly fixed it! Nothing like great customer service!

I agree, a fine bunch of gentlemen.Glad it was a quick fix.
