ive got screen wash in there, but when i pull back the washer stalk it just makes the same noise it would do if it where squirting but nothing comes out! from the front or the rear!

it was working then started to die, so i thought i had run out of liquid but i hadnt!

is the pump knackered or blocked? i oculdnt see any leaks but will check again? ideas?

cheers

Pull the motors out of the reservoir, you'll see some rubber grometts that are actually filters, these are probably full of goo from mixing different washer additives, give 'em a good clean and wash the res out.

Lift the tailgate and pull back the rubber boot at the top where the hinges are, the pipes split in there and when you use the rear wash/wipe it leaks into the boot.

get new front nozzles mate coz they get blocked more frequently. I unblock mine they work fine but next day they are blocked. Im gettin new ones.

As for the rear take em off and put in lime scale remover and give em a good clean shuld work fine.

Did the same with mine

hi mate attached on the washer bottle you have a round tyre pump that pushes into a rubber take that out and it will be full of bluey green slime clean it and put it back in that should cure your problem let me no how you get on :thumb:
