I am still trying to get to grips with spannering this car. It was good value at £4k, but has its problems. When I operate the washwipe on the tailgate, it works only in bursts or pulses, is this normal?: It also leaks from the RHS headling, soaking the rear seat back and headlining. I removed the headlining and tried to seal the join in the pipe but to no avail.

Similar problem with mine. Had to replace the pipe at a point behind the headlining (cut and inserted pipe joint 8mm from memory).Then added new pipe through roof and rubber tube to rear washer. Old pipe had split where it went through rubber tube. It took longer taking all the pieces out to get access than to do the job.
Good luck.
