2004 C5 hdi windscreen washer jets

Post by jaguar1 »

I have just replaced the washer jets on my mk 2 c5 the jets now squirt far to low onto the windscreen are they adjustable ? Also i had to fit a non return valve into the pipe as i had to operate the squirters for quite a while in order to get any water through . The windscreen washer jets were bought from the main dealer and look the same , i assume the originals had a built in non return valve.

I think it would be normal for the water to take a while to pump to the washers. Not sure about the washer nozzles but some are on a ball which is direction adjustable using a pin or needle in the hole.

Sometimes the change doesn't work.
