Hi all.

My fabia mk3 windscreen washer jets need aiming higher up.

How are they adjusted?

Do check they're not partially blocked first as that could cause them to spray low.

 

This covers adjustment I think, not sure as I've never needed to adjust them. - ETA: I've removed the video that was below this text as I was wrong .  It's as Gazbc and PaulCanning have put in their posts below and PaulCanning's photo.

Any luck with this as mine are too high 😞 half the fluids shooting over the roof. 

The video posted of the mark 4 golf didn't help as they are different 

I have found out how.

Next to each jet nozzle is a T10 torx adjustment screw,

Clockwise spray down,
Anti clockwise spray up.

If yours looks like this, then you need to lower/raise No.1 as needed.

Nope, as I say, not the same as mine.

Excellent! mines exactly as you described as you can see from my picture above. I assumed the torx was actually for removing the jets so didn't want to fiddle with it I have to admit!

Right, off to the shed to find a torx head to fit!

A bit late, the image from correct year.

 

@PaulCanning it was a mistake on choosing the year, the 1st diagram was for Fabia III, and one in this post for Fabia II but in typical VAG fashion it doesn't match reality.
