Washer Jet Bottle

[Jonff]

Managed to get my wipers off before and investigate my intermittently working washer jets. Turns out it is the motor that's the problem. Only thing is I managed to drop the rubber gromit that holds the motor to the water bottle.

I think it's dropped down in to the wheel arch area and I'll have look for it tomorrow, question is, where can I get those rubber gromits from? (If I don't find it) Is it a Renault only part?

was it shaped, or just an o-ring? can buy o-rings at good motorfactors/B&Q etc

Probably Renault only and will cost £28.73 knowing how expensive rubber they use (injector o rings are like £15 each)

I'm guessing it was just an 0-ring as where it came from on the washer bottle is round. Just hoping I can find it tomorrow as I can't fill my washer bottle up. Lol

And Lol, yeah their prices are a tad ridiculous, I try and avoid using the dealers as much as possible for that reason.

Id guess its not a normal o ring, in fact im 99% sure its stepped

Hmmm, I can't be certain to be honest as it must have fell off when I pulled the motor out of the water bottle.

Found the gromit, it'd pushed inside the water bottle, just removed the water bottle and got it out. You was right Burp, it does have a step in it.
