rear wash wipe problem

[WALTO TDI]

hi can anyone shed some light on a problem i have. i cannot get any water from the rear wash wipe on my A3 s line 8P2. it will wipe the window but not wash it?

is it likely that a pipe might of come off ? is there a seperate washer bottle from the one in the engine bay? or are there any other known problems?

cheers

Most likely to be the jets are blocked.

It's a very common problem and easily solved with a pin.

Also check the washer bottle isn't running low.

Anyway as below ... A quick search would have saved this.

This happened on my TDI... after using a needle to clear the blockage and repositioning the jet outlets, it wouldn't sprayed screenwash properly onto the rear windows so i bought a new wash jet (£6) from the dealer which fix the problem.
