My apologies for the late response... First I let the problem lie for weeks, and then I finally went to a Škoda garage. There I bought this: I then left that piece in my car for weeks, until I took it to another garage for a major service. I had already been to that garage before with the problem of the windscreen washer fluid pipe, and then they said "Oh, oh, that's difficult; remove a lot of panels" and so on. I was therefore very surprised that they had now installed a piece of pipe very easily: "Something of nothing"... So the result is there, and I have done work. But there is no connection between those two facts. ;)

The tube for the windshield washer fluid of the rear window has broken off (see pictures). At the local car part shop I bought a fuel hose with an inner diameter of 7 mm; but the outer diameter is too big to fit into the rubber cover... At the local workshop I was advised to remove the cover of the C pillar, and try to connect to a new tube there, all the way to the end of the existing tube (thus replacing it as from the new hose). Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Or with removing the C pillar of this model? I found this YouTube video, but it's about a Mk 1 Fabia, not a Mk 3 Combi... Thanks in advance for anyone's feedback! (The sharp edges of the broken tube had damaged the insulation around the electrical wiring, and my trying to get the fluid to the window caused the fluid to run over the exposed wiring, hence the tape around them...)
