So what needed fixing on the engine in the end?

MOT fail , wheel hub , welding and lots of other crap , garage can deal ive got to the point where I'm just handing cash to people now , I've got something I can't sus , I've got water dripping from inside the passenger wing onto the inside of the wheel but can't figure out where its coming from , any ideas ? Its a complete pain , I think it must be the back of the washer bottle Ive tried to get washer bottle bolts off , can somebody confirm that the bolts are reverse thread ? (not part of fail just a pain as it was dripping like a fountain whilst landy was on ramp) one of the fail items was leaking rear hub seal , mot centre have asked me to get one , i bought one , option was either a black plastic ring or a complete kit with seals and bearings for £10 so I bought the complete kit , im assuming this is sufficient

Any advice would be appreciated.

Washer bottle bolts should not be left thread unless someone's been silly in the past(unlikely). Also it may not be the bottle, just the tubes. Can you get to them easier?

Could the water be comint from the bottom of the heater matrix rather than the washer?try putting tissue in various places and see which one get wet first.

Apart from the wheel hub oil seals what is the other crap? Keep the faith; these are niggly things that have been lurking there for a while.

ill get fail certificate and let you know

Its not the squirter hoses , seem like it coming from back of bottle , not from matrix that I can see and it does smell like washer fluid , not sure how back of bottle could crack though?
