Quick question about rear washer?
-> 206 Talk

#1: Quick question about rear washer? Author: vipertsniper, Location: Doncaster PostPosted: Sun Dec 12, 2010 12:47 pm

the other day. with this cold my washer pipes had frozen any ways after running the car for a bit the front cleared no probs. the rear i tested again later on and after a second or so i heared the blockage clear and water ran ok.

the only thing is now every time i use the rear washer it takes a second or two for the water to flow and i can hear it trickling as it goes past my door..
now i can remember the delay but i cant remember the trickling noise...
is this normal
i know it a silly question but it really starting to bug me Sad

Check the pipes for a split?

Surely if it was leaking, there would be a big wet patch and the pressure would be pretty poor.

Maybe the only reason you hear it now, is could your listening for it, whereas before you weren't.

Runs from the washer bottle - Wing - Up the Drivers Side A Pillar - Across the top of the roof - Back light.

Easiest way is remove A Pillar (Pull til it unclips then left up) Turn on rear washer, you will see the water run through. Folow pipe.

Edit: Lee - Who says there isn't, some people don't notice things like that. (No offence intended to the OP). Also a trickling sound sounds like its running somewhere.

Is there a one way valve in the pipe work somewhere? If that was somehow damaged & it is now open, it'll allow the water to flow back witch would explain the trickling noise & the delay.

my rear washer jet doesnt work, the front work perfect but the rear, when i do it, leaks under my door. Is thi a simple fix of a broken pipe? where do i get more pipe from and could i fix this myself?
