rear washers

Post by gilb0z » Sat Sep 20, 2003 3:35 pm

took my car up to the alps for some winter fun.. left the car out in the snow for 3 days... when i got home the rear washers wont work.. [img]images/graemlins/033102bad_1_prv.gif[/img] i could hear it running but no spray.. and yes i checked the water levels.. [img]images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Right firstly dont use it anymore.... if the pipe has come off inside the hatch then it`ll leak water inside it and might cause damage. It quite common that sometimes the pipe comes off, ifs it in warranty take it to the dealers to have it looked at, otherwise you can do it yourself buy take the inside cover off the hatch.

Hope this helps. [img]images/graemlins/beerchug.gif[/img]

better check for leaks.. thanks Riz [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]... it's still under warranty so I'll take it to the dealers. Might get them to check a rattle on the drivers side door too... something is rattling when i hit bumps, gets quite annoying..
