Morning - no week would be fully complete without something else failing on this "magnificently engineered" pile of c**p.
Easy to describe - it's dumping washer fluid on the ground. Windscreen and headlight washers appear to be working fine (when there's some water available) but its dropping about 2 liters/day. This has only just started this week, so I haven't had time yet to crawl over it, but I can see the exit route which is about 12" in from the offside front wheel inner and about 12" back from the bumper.
However, as we all know water finds its own level so I would be grateful for any pointers or indeed (thanks Malcolm) diagrams of the washer system.
As a kid I had bikes - Norton, Triumph etc and consequently, semi permanent oily hands because they always broke. I thought these days were long gone - perhaps that could be a subtle new strap line for Mercedes Benz "Buy a Mercedes and regain your youth" (because you'll spend much of your time repairing it)"
Joy upon joy
