Replacing Washer Jets?

Pep · Mar 3, 2015

Washer jets on the V6 are useless, I'm sure I read on here once that there's some you can buy that have amuck better spray pattern rather than 2 powerful jets….can anyone shed any light?

marc15691 · Mar 3, 2015

Sure it's 206 ones...

Citroen ones

MRBILLYUK · Mar 4, 2015

Lots on ebay . Be aware , they might say " genuine " , but some of the adverts are cleverly worded . Yes they are " genuine " mist jets , but not always oem parts so can't vouch for the quality . I can't remember who I bought mine off , but they've been spot on , much better than the Renault ones .

The mist style ones you want are off a Citroen Xsara. I did a quick video of them once I fitted them on my old 182.

Amos91 · Mar 4, 2015

I can vouch these ones work well:

I and a few others have bought Citroen C2 washer jets from the dealers for around £5 and they did the job awesome.

Martin. · Mar 4, 2015

That's right. The Citroen ones are a big improvement and cheap as chips.

Pep · Mar 4, 2015

Thanks guys, will get some bought.

david0402 · Mar 8, 2015

Does anybody know are these the same for a MK3 aswell or will I need different ones?

iacabu · Mar 30, 2015

Is this an easy job?

Yeah , takes only a couple of mins . Just disconnect the pipes , push the old ones out from under the bonnet , then push the new ones in . I just used some pliers to push mine out , gently grip the old washer jets then push .

So I've swapped my washer jets for some genuine Citroën ones off eBay but they just spray at the wiper arms. It doesn't look like I can adjust the aim on them

Does anyone else have this problem?

Don't say that, i've got some to replace on mine too 😞

On a side note... The Citroen/Fiat ones come with a rubber gasket underneath them, do you keep that on when fitting or remove it?

fairm010 · Apr 23, 2015

I'd like to do this mod on mine. Should i use the ones from the link provided above?

I got these ones, but as said, the aim is too low.
I don't recall the rubber washer/gasket but it might have stuck on it and I just didn't notice. Or it's the missing piece that fixes the aim but they were in proper packaging

Ol’ Tarby · Apr 23, 2015

Yeah they're the ones I've fitted, along with the rubber gasket.

I can't be arsed change them again, I only do minimal mileage so I'll just put up with it.

Saw a post on the MX5 forum that a bloke put Ford (fiesta or focus, they're probably the same) washer jets on his Mk1 (where they're basically like children's water pistols) and the spray was very even, not a mist - but definitely better than the Clio's according to his pics.

CJM · Apr 23, 2015

Just so you know the angle of the mist on the Peugeot/citroen ones vary on what car they are from.
Xsara ones on mine are perfect. The 307 ones I fitted prior aimed at the wiper arms.

fairm010 · Apr 24, 2015

Looking for Xsara ones, if I order these do you think they'll fit?

I had the same, tried adjusting them but it's fixed so either pattern parts or just rubbish

fairm010 · Apr 27, 2015

Well, I bought the ones @172_Tom mentioned and they work perfectly!

Well that's good news because mine should be here today or tomorrow.

leeds2592 · Apr 28, 2015

Might have to purchase some myself.

The ones for the MX-5 are odd ones, like a Ford Ranger or something??

I fitted a set to my Five, but can't for the life of me remember what they are from.
Took a part number from the forum down to the dealer and asked for them, got a puzzled look but they had the last two sat on their shelf out back

Pop off from underneath. Simple 5 min job.

iacabu · Apr 30, 2015

Got my new ones fitted (again), work perfectly.

Dannyeff · May 5, 2015

im hopefully fitting mines today.. do you use pliers to pull it out or can you push it out with no issues?

fairm010 · May 5, 2015

I gave the base / end of tube a firm push and pulled from the other side with some pliers. They just pop right out.

StuOwen86 · May 5, 2015

Just bought some myself (same as what 172_Tom recommended) see how these are.

Simon_16v · May 5, 2015

They are the ones to have @StuOwen86 , you'll be surprised with the difference.

Jekyll · May 5, 2015

Such a cheap mod that makes loads of difference.

I'd never have the standard ones again.

Karlos182 · May 6, 2015

Just ordered some after reading this thread - the same ones recommended by 172 Tom. I'll report back when they're fitted.

StuOwen86 · May 6, 2015

Mines only a track car but still hate the standard washers lol

N4TH4N · May 6, 2015

Nicked mine off the citroen van at work! Nice n cheap!

Karlos182 · May 9, 2015

My washer jets came today and I've just fitted them. Perfect fit and perfect spray pattern. Top job. :up:
