Hi Guys

My windscreen wash stopped spraying last night and instead decided to start pouring on the floor when the lever is pulled. More upsetting is the OPC want an hours labour to fix it!!!

My guess is that it is only a loose pipe. Does anyone know how easy it is to fix and how to remove the wheel arch lining? On a 2001 996 Cab.



Cheers.

very easy to fix - jack car up, put on full lock (right hand down), back of the wheel arch liner there are (i think) 3 x 10mm plastic nuts, also some plastic rivits which should pull out ease the liner out of the arch (can do it just at the back of the arch, without removing the whole thing) you will see the bottle, at the back of the bottle the pipe will almost certainly be adrift, just put a tie wrap around it after you have resecured it to the bottle - hope that helps

Thanks for that. Can the OPC really justify 1 hours labour for that? Disgusting!!!

maybe half an hour (if you consider driving it into the workshop and putting it up on the ramp)

tbh, i bet it takes an hour.



i had a long time problem with my audi's washers (the bump washer pump exploded) then I had a trouble with the other pump too. Anyway, everytime I took it out and in took me about half an hour each time just to unbolt and re bolt everything. using a jack tho, not an electric ramp.
