How high up the glass does your rear jets spray? Mine only go about 2/3 up, there's a good 2-3 inches left to reach the 3rd brake light. Would have liked them a bit higher.

This is the hatch I'm talking about.

The actual jets are a lttle ball with a hole in it so if you get a pin, insert it in the hole you can adjust them

Typical, mine have stopped working now. Haven't used the car for a few days.

The front are absolutely fine, but the rear is not spraying any water out at all.

Not sure if they are blocked or not, or if anything has popped out, which happened to one of my Fabia estates a couple of years back.

How do I get to the spray holes at the back. Does the black casing come off?

just ease the cover up and it is on a hinge (wiper side) and you can just lift the jets out and clean them.....old piece of 5 amp fuse wire works a treat.....but I bet the connector has come off, left hand side of boot (passenger side) just snap it back together and tape it in place

When you say left hand side of the boot, under the carpet?

In behind the side covering as it goes up the rear roof pillar....not sure what model yours is but undo the bag hooks and maybe a couple of pop out plastic bungs and ease it out ...you should see a black plastic pipe and the connector will be disconnected

I have had failed rear screen wash on my 06 Octavia. The dealer fixed it and it failed again after a fortnight. It has been in twice again whilst in for other repairs and despite being asked they didn't fix it.
However it does spit out a little screenwash but I am more worried about the rusty mess it is putting out with it. Any ideas?
