Title: Washer bottle leaking
Post by: andyp on February 10, 2016, 02:43:15 pm

I've a leak from my washer bottle and I've bought some new seals for it as app these perish.. Which is the easiest way to get to it to replace them or just the one.   Thanks

Is it leaking at the bottom of the bottle, or just down to the detachable neck?

If the bottom, then best take the bumper off for access

Not 100 per cent where it's actually coming from, I took the foglight grill off to see if I could get my hand in there but there isn't a lot of room to do so.  I did notice a lot of crap off one of the pipes towards the bottom, would that be a headlight washer one?
