mintalkin Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 even though the water was clean if you have replaced the washer jets i would get the core plugs checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DONFRAMAC Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 even though the water was clean if you have replaced the washer jets i would get the core plugs checked. I have had my washer-jets get blocked with suds from screen-wash, and needed repeated clearing with a pin. It may be more permanent if you fitted new jets, as I had to keep that pin inside the car permanently, despite using "HOLTS" concentrate. A bit of blockage will create a back-pressure of wash liquid, under the bonnet, and probably cause a leak there, when using the wash-wipe.
