Drive through Car wash
« on: July 12, 2012, 09:42:01 pm »
 :driver:

So I guess I am a complete muppet, not giving my car a wash for a few months and I decide to use the drive through car wash and my rear windscreen jet washer and cover are damaged so every time I spray water onto the rear windscreen it just sprays straight back.... :fighting: :scared:

Went to the dealers bought the parts for £10 and they said it was another £15 to fit. Go to a dealer up north and they do it for free....nice of them. But now the rear jet is bent lol so sprays water at an angle, that classed as a mod?? haha

Moral of the story, don't use drive through car wash ever again....

Fail.

Moral of story should be don't ever use them in first place.

The only thing a car wash is good for is scratching hell out your paintwork.
