windscreen washer jets

Post by Loperamide » Sun Feb 09, 2020 12:16 am

is there a way to adjust the squirting angle of these? I know they can't be adjusted with a needle like with 'normal' cars (already tried this).

You have to move the windscreen slightly to where you want it.

:rofl: :lol: :telloff:

Newtis says don’t put a needle in as that damages the water channels inside. It just says that if the pattern isn’t right, replace the whole thing. That’s going to be nice and cheap then!

It’s not terribly useful, the sub links don’t help much either but....
