Disco4 windscreen washer pump.

[b.anzellotti]

Hello all,
Can't seem to find much info about this. When I use the front windscreen washer it doesn't have as much power as it used to. The rear is fine. I thought maybe it was just low and topped up the reservoir. But it just kinda comes out at 1/3 power and sometimes just out of one or the other. This sound like the pump is going or blocked lines? Actually don't see where the line goes to the hood???

Is the front and rear off the same pump or seperate?

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Any body know how to access the pump as well??

Thanks guys

Front and rear have separate pumps.
Fluid could be escaping en-route to the headlight washer jets if a hose
is broken, otherwise check the pressure near the front pump to determine if pressure is low there or if there's a blockage further out.

Hello all,
I thought maybe it was just low and topped up the reservoir.

FYI, if the water gets too low it briefly throws up a message on your dash screen message centre as well as an orange warning triangle.

There is often a strainer on the pump inlet,don't know for sure if there is one on the D4 though.
