Was just about to pipe up about this!  :grin:

You need to re-enable your rear wiper and the washers will work again!  :wink:

Strangely enough this happened to me the other day too after Dom turned my rear wiper off with VCDS. We thought that we were just disabling it from automatically coming on when reverse was selected and it was raining!

It feels good to fix things on your own car Ed, try the below advice and adjusting the jet its easy peasy.  :happy2:


It crystalises and gunks up, just pop the jets off, soak them in boiling water for a while and blow back down the tubes to ensure they're clear.

oh yea it feel amazing, but i shouldn't have to!!! i dont work 12hour shifts, pay stupid amounts of insurance, buy a nice car to then have to go around fixing it!!  :grin:

tbh i already took a look and nearly took the jets off to take a look then it started raining so i didnt need them anymore!
