the washer jets on my car are forever clogging up, and need blasted out once a week with a good powerful airline and then adjusted agin to let them hit the windscreen, is it much of a task to replace the jets themselves or what other options do i have, the pump is in good condition as it's still pumpin the water at a good rate when the hose is disconnected from the pipes leading to the jets.

Any advice much appreciated :grinning:

The washer tank must be full of crap if the jets keep clogging up. Its not a big job to replace the jets, they should just pull out of the bonnet. Or you could put ones on from a 405(clips to the wiper itself). Clean out the washer tank as well

You can get new xsara or 307 washer jets that spray a fine mist on the windscreen for about £5 from citroen or peugeot.Dont know if they work any better to be honest?

My passenger washer jet hardly ever works.

I just positioned the drivers one to squirt on both sides ;-)

I've Xsara ones on mine, they work a lot better than the standard ones, although they do hit the screen a bit low, and can't be adjusted!
