Default A rather irritating problem.......

I have no juice in ma' tubes!!

I seem to have lost power in my windscreen washer jets. The solution just seems to trickle out the end and barely makes it to the screen. I have tried and looked at potential problems such as low fluid level in the reservoir and splits/disconnection in the tubing but alas no joy

Any suggestions and its probably something obvious, just me being a tit

Does the fluid bottle have a small filter on the exit to the tubes? maybe blocked/dirty, check the tube runs true on its route to the bonnet area, ie, make sure its not kinked anywhere. hth

Cheers fella's, I will check to see if there is a filter on the line and make sure they are not getting trapped when closing the bonet

I installed a strut bar recently and think perhaps it may be clashing with that somehow
