Miserable windshield washers

[alan996]

The water spray on my front windshield wipers is miserable..

The headlight washers clean more of the windscreen that these.. the back one seemsfine too.

Water flow seems ok but the are hitting the bottom of the screen when I use them.

I read somewhere there are separate pumps for each.. ideas, thoughts, things I can try ???

Half blocked pipe/pump. The screen wash additive turns to 'jelly' this is a common problem on the e70  flush system several times, if this does not sort it you will have to manually strip the system and clean it out. The pump is under the off side wing. Use the washers more often so as not to allow screen wash to hang around.

Thanks I'll have to Google how to flush it.... I know getting at the bottle itself is a pig

Plus I'm no mechanic

Years ago we used to stick a pin in the jets hole and move them around, as it was like a ball and socket idea.
Haven't felt the need in most modern cars as have found them pretty good as standard.

Sorted it today....

Replaced both washer jets - both had been inexpertly repaired in the past...

35 euro a side for new ones
