Screenwash Spray Poor

Featured Replies

Hi,

Noticed this week one of my screen jets was very weak on my 2016 Superb Saloon, so took it off and blasted it with air to clean. Then noticed both my screen wash jets are very poor. The water tank is full. Could it be pump blocked, feeder pipe blocked? Is it easy to access the water reservoir and pump and how do I access it?

Thank in advance

Tony

The location of the tank and pump depends on exactly which model. On the 280tsi it is behind the front right wheel arch but I think in most other models it is front left wheel arch. Where is your filler cap, as this shows which side?

One can get an infection of algae “bug” which clogs the filter gauze etc (there is a gauze filter on the pump inlet) and /or there could be a leak somewhere. For the bug problem, having cleaned it out I would put a small amount of Milton in the fluid from time to time, to prevent it from re-growing
