C5 x7 screen washers.

Unread post by citroenc5mad »

Hi guys.
I've got a problem with my washer jets not working anymore.
I've taken off the sound proofing and the pipes are clear as I can use the stalk and water comes out.

So was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction off part numbers so I can replace them. As they are the fan type and I can't seam to unblock them I've tried blowing using a hand pump. Using a needle but to no avail.
Also would peugeot stock the part.

Also anyone know how to remove them as tried to, so I could obtain the part number but couldn't get my hands in.

The car is a c5 x7 1.6hdi 2009 plate if any more info required I can supply

Regards

The part number is 6438 Z6 - and they are £10.43 or £12.52 each inc. VAT. You should be able to order them from Peugeot, as they may well be shared with other models - but that is the PSA part number.

As they are the "Wide Spray" type, cleaning them will be hard without a ultra sonic cleaner as the nozzle is "shaped" rather than just a hole.

Could it be the same as fitted to the Peugeot 508?

No those 508 ones aren't the same as my X7 that's for sure and I've just re-checked and they are all the same on the X7.

Thanks for the help guys.

Was looking at these on eBay but wasn't too sure if they are correct.

Also anyone give any guidance on installing them.

Thanks

There are so many variations so wouldn't like to say. You have the part number for the correct ones, so do a bit of digging. They should just pop out of the top of the bonnet after you disconnect the hose.

Daft as it sounds -try soaking them in Cillit Bang lime scale remover for a bit. Not always successful but often works. If cleaning I then use a home tyre compressor (pushing that cone thingy for air beds into the plastic hose. (Much more pressure than water - but wear goggles - Cillit Bang is good but nasty on skin or eyes.

Hi there, the part you need is here
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282239862935
I only know because I just bought a set 2 day ago. They are for my C5 X7, fit perfectly and work as they should. It also came the very next day.
The parts look to be genuine and also have a rubber sealing under where they touch the bonnet. I recommend those rather than others on eBay. I got nothing to do with the seller, I just looked around and those are the only quality ones at this price.
I'm at work and I don't have a pic with them. Anyway, they look really well finished and I think are genuine.
Sorry for my bad english, peace

They aren't the correct part numbers, but may do the job as Lucianman has indicated. The original part comes with the connecting tube as shown here:

I got them without the short tube but you just pull that old one out and replace it on the new nozzle. That's what I did and no damage occurs

It seems that it's not very easy to remove nozzles from the hood, and install new ones. Any tips on this?

Here's a diagram:
You push back the tabs shown at (5) that lock the jets in place then you can remove it.
