Screen wash
Not a problem anymore but with no posts here I thought it might be lonely so here we go. Windscreen washers not working so I pulled the pumps out. Literally just pulled them out its that easy, removed the grommets with the filters attached and washed off the slimy smeg nastiness, washed out the bottle and now it's all good
So peeps do use decent screen wash and check your bottles regularly

Re: Screen wash
I bought a huge amounts of the BMW stuff, seems very decent as well and never have had any issues with the pumps.

Re: Screen wash
Thats exactly what i've started using and it brought the slimey film off the sides of the bottle. So no more cheap stuff, and I like the smell too

Re: Screen wash
This is on my list of jobs to do when I get home... I have 4 weeks off and so thought I might give the car some TLC as it has been neglected for some months as I have spent a fortune on the house (New Kitchen, Bathroom, plastered every room in the house, new Lighting, Flooring... the bloody lot!)!
Will have to pop to the Dealers to get a few bottles of the stuff.
