Rear wiper washer problem

[beefio]

My rear wiper washer has low pressure and I've found that fluid is leaking into the boot trim, please could someone tell me how best to access the washer pipe which I assume as either crack or come loose?

Do I need to remove the whole of the boot trim, how do I do this?

What part numbers would I need to replace a cracked pipe?

Any help would be very much appreciated!

I've removed the boot trim to replace the boot catch but can't remember exactly how to take it off but I remember it's not hard , a few torx screws and the trims round the window to remove

Took the trim off without too much trouble, I found fluid was ******* out of the actual wiper pump/motor!

Yeah its a common Audi problem - had exactly the same job on mine. You're lucky if you've caught it before the motor burns through, or washer fluid gets into other electrics such as the tail lift. Make sure you take out the trim containing the sound dampening (foam), and let it dry out.

Replacement motor part for mine was 8R0 955 711 C

Also worth while replacing the nozzle jet (as it'll be likely blocked up or corroding), and the nut for the wiper arm. Be careful when removing the wiper arm as it'll be likely corroded onto the motor shaft. If you've got a puller, it may come off, alternatively you'll need to get a hacksaw blade and saw through the shaft (be careful you don't damage the rubber grommet that the motor arm passes through the rear window). If you're replacing rear washer motor it won't matter if you do this anyway!

All in with genuine parts from Audi approx £150.
