2011 E220 S212, any special method for adjusting the screen washer jets? Mine squirts onto the wiper arms, Think I read somewhere that you need a special mercedes tool

Yes its called a pin. Make sure they are not blocked before you go prodding. Loosen off the hose and blow back.
The pin should be used carefully to move the jet only. Too much force and you will ruin the jet.

Thank you, so the same as most other cars then, holes not blocked just poorly aimed, so just put a pin in and move to desired aim.

As per Tony Dyson if you have the jets that spray you will need the tool as they are very difficult if not impossible to adjust with a pin.

Don't need to adjust mine as they are the ones with the water piped in to the wiper blade holder and heating element in the blade as well. Only problem is £95 for a new pair of wipers:eek::shock:
