Windscreen washer jets at 50% |
|
Hey all,
Recently upgraded my old D3 to a D4 and couldn’t be happier. Only problem thus far is the windscreen washer jets: on both the driver and passenger nozzle only the left hand jet produces any water. Is this a common problem? Is it something I can likely sort myself?

Small pin and some comrpessed air, jets need removing as well.
Some hot water poured over them might work, as if car stood the washer fluid can turn to jelly.

Had same problem with SWMBO's Antara and followed advice of someone on here by adding milton fluid to the washer bottle. Prevents mould from forming which then slowly blocks all the holes. .

I had a green scum form in my system that blocked up all the one way valves etc. In the end I replaced the pump plus under bonnet hoses and one way valves, plus the jets. Works perfectly now. I've since avoided the brand of washer fluid I was using that we get in Australia

Just wanted to say thanks for the advice. Milton and a pin worked a treat and everything is now working fine.
