Be very careful if its weak, the pipe which carries the water may have a leak. Check under front passenger seat well to see if its wet. If it is, fix the joint immediately or risk damaging the parking sensor module located under passenger seat. Common problem! The joint blows apart or partially comes apart. Relatively easy to fix, remove plastic trim from side of front footwell to expose pipe, repair and reassemble

hi shuttlebasher,i had same trouble when i had mine a few months ago.rear wash didnt work at all so i messed around a bit and then left it.saw on here the problem and as you say the floor was soaking when i took carpet up and washer pipe had come apart at join.why they didnt put a pipe all the way through i dont know.anyway it took ages to dry it out with heat gun on low and put some tape around join and alls ok now.this s club has saved me some money a few times as theres allways good advice.beware if you change the battery in your keyfob that the chip doesnt fall out as it does.the car wont start and run only starts and cuts out.i found my chip on the floor after reading advice seatkid had given.me and the mrs were on hands and knees for ages looking.i,d never have known i,d lost the little chip from in the corner.beware if you put new battery in! i love my gal though she,s a lovely drive.
