    my avant rear wiper works as a wiper, but no water comes out of the jet.

    I have checked the water hose and no problem, the block is located in the motor unit.

    Any one have such a problem? any ideas on how to fix or should I buy a new unit.

    If it is a unit any tips on a good source?

    cheers

    the nozzle itself might be blocked. try pulling it out of the motor assembly and using the rear screen wash again. (dont have anyone standing right in front of it though- they might get wet). mine was blocked once, got a new one from audi for about a fiver. might need some pliers to get it out, but be gentle with it.

    you have checked all of the joins inside the car i take it?

    I had this problem as well, but instead of taking things to bits I used the thin piece of plastic that is used to hold the labels on new clothes. It was thin and flexible to enough to fit down the nozzle right into the pipe and I was amazed how much dirt came out. Jet now works a treat.

    Hope this helps
