Hi All,
Quick question, anyone know where I could get a hose for the washerjets for the front windscreen?
The electronics are working fine, ie when I pull the stalk in the car I can hear the noise, washer bottle is full but water is coming out so the hose seems to be broken somewhere along the line.
I haven't had a chance to look at in depth but would Halfords stock a replacement hose does anyone know? I wont get a chance to look until later this evening.
Car is an e39 btw.
Cheers,
Keith
Congrats on the e39 purchase Keith, any photos of it? Is it Phil's e39?
I would say check with a dealer first, if it's an outrageous price, then breakers. Have a look this evening though could be something silly with an easy fix.
Thanks Peter, nope the brother still has his e39, we have matching twins now!Quote:

I'll get up some photos when I can

She's been driving the E39 mostly lately, so thats why its being left undone!!

Found that post trying to find the diameter of the hose but cant find it
You've gotta love a thread like this, the race is on now to see who fixes their e39 first, Curran you have a 4yr headstart ;-)Quote:

I had checked tye pipe work...the old one is shattered!!
Had the pipe pop off on her E46 before!
I have washer hose in the boot of my car of you want a bit tomorrow ;)Quote:
