Well they do if i can fill the bottle up faster than its leaking out of the bottom.

Has anyone had probs with there washer bottles leaking on there (Mk2) 172s ? is it easy to replace looks a bit inaccessible and no doubt expensive to replace.

thoughts

thanks

Loads of people have had this, its a cracked bottle and a warrenty job.

have u tried replacing the seal between the motor and the bottle.... they cost £1.29 from renault

i did this recently when the valve in the motor that switches between front and rear spray went kaput.

I have not had a look yet to see where its leaking from.

How easy is it to get at, it looks rather inaccessible, looks as tho the plastic strip at the base of the window has to come off and to do that looks as tho the wipers have to come off as well, is it an easy job

cheers
