just wondering where it goes under the car?

you able to spot it if carpets are lifted?

mate came over to salvage some bits off my wreck for his clio

rear wiper spray wernt getting any feed, so we took the pump of mine,(one fo the resons it wernt working) tried it

nothing..expect for a puddle of water on his floor :/

so there is a split in the hose some where.

haynes dont mention where it goes,(well i coudent find it) and i dont fancy having to take the carpet out of mine to find it, then only to do it again to his.

it runs inside the car behind the kick trim. Then it runs up the c pillar at the back.

Theres a check valve in line with the drivers knee. These can and do leak.

has to be...no other leak.

and it only started once we tested the washer...empted quater of a bottle, and it didnt come out of the wahser.

turns up inside.

put the 2 things together.

and i came out with hose is broken..leaking inside.

unless some one has moved it about?!?

did have a plug in the washer bottle, where the rear pump shold be.

couldent of thought why some one would of taken it out? unless they had a go em selfs doing it, buggerd it up plugged it and just left the pipe..hanging around.

it may have popped off the squirter, if it has then it will spray towards the passenger side and run down the passenger C pillare and end up under the seat and rear passenger footwell.
