    Hi,

    Swapped my aging Bora for a 08 Leon, and have noticed that when I try the rear washer, I get no fluid at the blade, checked outside, and there is a leak from above the wheel at the rear. No puddles inside. Anybody know if there is a connector there, and how to get to it if there is?

    Thanks

    these have a habit of doing this, there is a long thin copper or brass like pipe which your washer jet pushes into, tbh i cant remember if you have to take the motor out ,but basically the small pipe corrodes which in turn lets water come out the motor and into the boot floor, these are available on ebay priced around 10-20 quid. hope it helps
