Thanks mate! Bet mine will turn up eventually but if it does I could send it to you in the post or something if you wanted it :) the car cleaning starts this afternoon!
Really I wouldn't have thought there was any movable parts there... nightmare of a job getting that thing in, maybe I'll just leave it. I was thinking it might be that I've put the single wiper connection on too low and it's hitting something after its limits.
Little update on the op actually, I managed to get a new pump on the right side and everything's working! Lovely... however, I have a grinding noise coming from somewhere, sounds like it might be the mechanism against the water bottle. Anyone else had this? Only started hearing it just as I had...
Sorry I best make one thing clear...
It's not come in the bottom due to the flood, it's just it rained so hard, and for so long, that I found out I've obviously got a leak somewhere (maybe a seal around the door or something?) either way I guess the same still applies. The most annoying thing...
Some of you might have heard about the flooding in Southend last weekend... anyway I was on holiday at the time but just got back and opened the car to a horrendous stink :( yup the water got in somehow!
It's underneath the drivers seat. What's the best way to not only get rid of the water...
If I was in the market for a car like that I'd probably be prepared to pay somewhere between £7500-8000 but I think it's a bit too much atm... rather get a nice Evo or M3 for £10000!
Brother's just put his car up for sale in case anyone is after a decent motor for under a grand :cool:

Yeah first thing I checked. Well after pulling the lever for ages, it started coming out my headlight washers, like... a load, spraying everywhere!
But still nothing from the windscreen ones unfortunately. Oh well car's going in garage tomorrow so I'll get them to have a look around. Maybe...
For the rears as well!? This is what I put on...

I think you're right! Wish I had researched the price before trying lol... anyway, slight development. I had a few hours to spare so thought f**k it, go and buy a new one.
Have that fitted now, but still nothing. The only thing I'm thinking, is where I took the hoses off, I didn't make a note...
Okay so I got it apart, found the rubber that needed trimming, got it all back together (which was a bigger pain in the arse than taking it apart!) and...
Nadda, nothing, zero. No change whatsoever. I'm not trying again lol, so I'll just get my garage to have a look before I hit Trax. Never...
Starting to get somewhere! I got to the pump now, but in this picture (stolen from another thread) is the white bit meant to come out the black bit?
Because I've been trying for half hour and it's not going anywhere! Any tactics?
Cheers for the tools link! Never heard of one of those before... need something quick delivery though as need this done before Trax.
Swede cup: If you take the plug off (grey and pink wires? How do you do this as I thought I was gonna snap the damn thing) then you can literally just grab it up...
Been reading all through various threads this afternoon as I need to get this sorted... unfortunately I've come stuck quite quickly! I've read the entire thread on the proper 'guide' to doing this, but lack of images is holding me back :o
I've seen many people say you can get this job done...
