There's a leak........ - Page 2

Digging up an old thread. Looks like I'm going to have to get into this system on my recently purchased 2008 V70 as the windscreen washer was very weak when I bought it (I presumed the system was almost empty). Filled it up today though and water started dripping out as I filled it, so I presume the pipe to the windscreen washer has come off or something.

Is the rear washer operated from the same tank? (As that doesn't work either)

My headlamp washers work though...

Anyone got a link for a how-to for the front bumper removal?

Stupid question but does the P3 v70/XC70 even have a rear washer?

Yes definitely has a rear washer . Push right hand stalk forward to operate.
