Too good! :D

Mine, too!

I finally got around to tackling mine today while I was swapping the front bumper. The pump worked so I tried blowing out the water line with compressed air.

That was a mistake. It's blown the line off a connector somewhere in the left rear quarter - I can hear the air when the line is pressurised. :(

I'll be taking the covers off there tomorrow! :D

I'm not too sure with the P38 but some LRs have a valve in the rear pillar/roof area to stop washer fluid dripping out of the jet on acceleration so that could well have blown a hose off.

Yes, looking at RAVE, there is an NRV in the rear quarter. I'll pull that panel out tomorrow as I want to replace it with a spare from the other car.

I think I saw an NRV on the floor in the back of your spares car yesterday......

I'll have to make sure it's still there then :twisted:.

Fixed.

The hose had blown off the NRV when I put air pressure into the water line at the pump.

It took quite a while to find the blown off line in the rear pillar. (Disregard the felt pen markings they were there.)

I had to remove the nozzle in the tailgate as it was blocked (and quite badly). It's a pig to get to with big hands. If you ever remove it, be careful the hose doesn't pull back into the tailgate.
