Rear screenwash nozzle
Hi! When I try to wash the rear window on my Citroen C5 Estate, the screenwash liquid flaws between the window and the plastic ornament. The nozzle si dry. I tried to clean it but the screenwash still doesn't flow through it. How can I fix it? Thanks!

Re: Rear screenwash nozzle
How can I remove the plastic part to check what's inside? I took put the 2 bolts fr9m each side but it seems it's something else that holds it attached to the tailgate. The screenwash liquid reaches all the way to the tailgate, it's just inside the plastic part a problem... cheers!

Re: Rear screenwash nozzle
Hopefully somebody who has done it can help - there is a risk of breaking all the clips taking the trim off so they recommend replacing these - but the rear right quarter panel trim has to come off as far as I can tell - there is a length of pipe that ages badly. There's no specific procedure I'm afraid for just this part.
