Hi

Sorry if this has been covered before, I tried a search on the forum, but nothing came up with "rear wash wipe" !

On my S3, the rear wash wiper works, but when I try to spray the screen wash......nothing/little water comes out! It sometimes has a low pressure drizzle of water, but mainly nothing happens!!!!

The blade obviously keeps squeaking across the screen destroying the blade on the dry surface.

I can hear the pump when I try to spray water. The front one works fine. And there is plenty of screen wash in the bottle.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

The girlfriends Mark V Golf is also the same

is the washer jet blocked,

Really quite a common problem on the S3 I think. Mine did this at least twice. Hose comes detached in a number of places. You just have to find out where. This may help

Thanks.

Its leaking in the engine bay, behind the air filter box/ABS bits

Can't seem to get to it though ......... need some tools ......

Yep, I've had that one. Tricky bugger, best of luck

I've recently moved from the Midlands to Milton Keynes and all my tools are still up there Only have a chocolate spanner from IKEA and a set of cheap screwdrivers

Bakerdcb, what do I need to remove please?

Cheers.

Now sorted - thanks

Had to remove battery cover, air filter box and a cover that protects the cables under the filter box. The join that had came apart was in there!

Pushed back together - job done
