rear wiper hose split :-(

[vwmorty]

hello folks,

as the title says the rear wiper hose has split at the rubber bit between the tailgate and bodywork, has anyone ever had this happen and if so how did you fix it??
can the full hose be bought and replaced??

any help would be great

cheers

no replies, I take it this is a one off problem and not common ???

Unless the split is big I would try some heat shrink or amalgamating tape. Not sure about replacing the hose as most people just choose to de-wiper the rear alltogether!

Hope this helps

Cheers for the reply, the hose has split in two now so looking at ways to join together. The rear was dewipered but as my wife drives this as her daily driver she wanted the wiper put back on.
