| Briskodian  | washer jets playing up - fixed them The spray pattern of the washer jets has not been right since the car came back from having a new engine. In all it stood for about 4-5 weeks at the garage awaiting parts. I thought the jets would clear with use but no they slowly got worse. So I tried this and found that ... Kettle de-scaler solution has fully regenerated them- presuminably dissolved residues from evaporated washer fluid which were causing distortion of the water flow near the jet orifices. The shape of which are critical for the spray pattern The jets pull out easily by rocking towards the front of the car and come off the hose with a form pull and twist. Better than driving 15miles to my nearest Skoda dealer for £4 of plastic parts. Jules |
