Title: Windscreens washers.
Post by: Anonymous on March 11, 2004, 17:52
Mine have very poor pressure, more so when the bottle is full which seems strange  s:( :( s:(  . Is this a Toyota thing  s:? :? s:?  ? Our Yaris didn't have very much pressure either, but I don't recall our Celica having a problem.

Check that there isn't any trash in the nozzle...I had some crap on the other one and it looked like there was no pressure (but the other one was just fine).

Still under warranty, just, so making note of all minor problems before it runs out. The funny thing is they seem to be stronger before topping up the bottle, it isn't a soft top thing is it? In case we soak ourselves when hood is down!

This one is fun. That's why my passenger jet is angled slightly higher than the driver side!!!!

i know some bloke at work put a dual nozzle on his astra so he could angle one at his windscreen and one at pedestrians  s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:
