Windscreen washer adjustment

[richardjh]

I am now on my 4th Skoda - A 2018 Superb Estate - And on this car unlike the other 3 the screen washer jets are mis-aligned. Previous cars used to give a lovely foamy spray when I washed the window. All I get now is a rather pathetic squirt aimed at the bottom of the window.

 

I can't see how to adjust them. Is it possible?

If they are the fan jet type The is a hole next to the jet that a torx bit fits to adjust the jets.

Thanks Kenny,

 

I'd seen that little hole next to the jet. I will give it a twiddle to see if it makes them better.

 

I assume it just makes the jet go higher or lower on the screen?

I didn't realise that the jet had been changed from the 'fan' spray models. When was the change made?

I guess my car was built sometime april/may 2018

Mine looks like this. I wonder whether the white residue is from screen wash or is from the hard water in my area.
