P38A Rear washer pipework

Bagshot · Jan 10, 2019

Hi
Seem to have washer fluid,(bubbles and etc) coming from under the rear of Betsy..(not Mrs Bagshot, so no replies please.) Does anyone know where the pipework goes to the rear washer. Had a look but can't even trace the pipe...

In the roof on the drivers side (RHD) judging by the leak on my project car

Thanks Siddeley, didn't think it would be in RAVE. Hell that's some run of pipe.. but gives me a start where to look.
Cheers

Pips goes across to N/S wing from pump back along inner wing. Down to bottom along sill up over rear wheel arch along behind trim rear N/S quarter then up to NRV then up to roof and along roof and loops back to washer nozzle. Leak will be at NRV.

That's what I thought, but the leak on the MY99 is over the rear off side window. I won't know exactly until I drop the roof lining to re-trim it

Possibly.

Thanks all. Found the NRV behind LH corner panel cover... goosed. Took it apart but can't see what stops it working.. bizarre! So removed and taped up. All working, just a delay when calling for fluid. Checking fleabay for a new one.
Thanks again for everyone's help.

Only happens when I operate the rear washer, disconnected the pump for the moment. No leak when it rains.

A wear hole, if the grommet has slipped ?

I wonder if there is a pin hole in the pipe spraying forward.

It never comes out of roof, it connects to back of washer jet and goes nowhere near O/S. Our O/S that is.

I thought it went through the double skin panel ?

When you say O/S do you mean our O/S or your O/S pipe goes along UK N/S.
