hey guys. Got a quick question for you. When i got my car, the rear washer worked.... now it doesnt. The washer bottle in the front ofthe car is full... and it only seems to lead to the front light jets and the windscreen jets.

So, im guessing there is another bottle for the rear washer somewhere.... anyone able to please tell me where?

As the post by 'Gogs' the washer by the strut suppliers both fron and rear screens. The piping for the rear screen normally goes forward and into a hole just behind the front light and infront of the battery, so could look like it supplies the headlamp washers.

If both pumps are working check that the tubing hasn't got blocked. Easiest way to do this I've found is to take the rear jet off making sure that the piping doesn't disappear back into the roof, get an assistant to hold the pipe while you blow down it with an airline from a compessor or similar.
