Posts: 2,819 Thanks: 114 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | rear washer jet feed pipe can anyone tell me where the washer jet pipe feeds through the car for the rear jet? i have de wipered my rear, no longer need the jet and have an issue with the washer motor valve so the rear jet leaks when i use the fronts. i have used silicone to block the jet holes so this dosnt happen, but have had an issue with the spare tyre well flooding. i think it may be a leak from the jet feed pipe as i cant see any evidence of a leaky seal, but not sure as i dont know where the pipe goes to reach the jet. i was thinking of just removing the pipe and blocking it off from the motor valve to stop this (if it is the issue). |

Posts: 2,819 Thanks: 114 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: rear washer jet feed pipe nah. never bothered as had more important things to deal with. just blocked up the jet holes which sorted the leak. the spare tyre well was flooding b4 then, but cant see any signs of where it coming from, hense trying to locate the pipe route to see if it is the problem. if it is, then i can just disconnect, if not i will just leave it as it is for now and will have to look at other options. |

TBH you're better off tracing the pipes from the pump, then disconnecting them at the join (just by the engine bay fusebox, i think) and capping the hose from the pump there.
