Rear Washer jet

Post by James0121 »

Hello all

i have just changed my rear wiper for the one which is fitted on the estate and got into a conversation with a friend about the rear washer jet. On my 1998 1.4 Cl i haven’t got one is there suppose to be? Or was this an option when buying the car? :?

Cheers James

Yes there should be - the screenwash comes out of the central shaft and is sprayed onto the window just in front of the wiper

yo well having a better look i have now found the jet and had a look round but cant feel any wet patches and have had the back interior panel off and a had look at the water pipe and its bone dry. i had the seat out quick and didnt see anythink wet. i will have a furthur look at the weekend and see if the pipes trapped by the seat.

i know, how time flys. but when the new lights, grooved disks, braided hoses, sports pads, coilovers are fitted it will be much different to the polo from ips days dont you think?
