Hi I bought this car only the other week but have dicovered the rear washer is not working. After trying it I noticed water running out the bottom of the boot door. Im pretty sure it must be the washer hose has came off the washer nozzle. Could anyone please tell me how to access the rear washer hose and nozzle. I pretty sure I have to remove the boot door trim, but Im not sure how to do it. Any help appreciated, thanks.

Hello,

You have to get at it through the washer jet hole it,s self. the jet turns 45 degrees pulls out, then you take off the rubber joining hose from the car to boot, and then wiggle the washer hose in the boot lid until you can grab it with a pair of long nose pliers, pull it out and reattach it. Its very fiddle and patience trying!!!

Remove the trim at the back top of the head lining and check the hose there as well as this often becomes unattached and leaks there. the trim is clipped up and pulls straight downwards!!

Hope this helps
