HA ha numpty's my local dealer is as helpful as a bling man giving direction

If you can live without the rear wash wipe then jus dis-connect the pipe from the pump at the front

or if you know where the split is you could use a connector and re-connect some new pipe - would not advise this unless you know you can get a water tight connection

easy part is feeding the pipe thru the car hardest part is feeding the pipe throught the boot lid

connect new pipe to end of old pipe then try pull the old pipe through hoping that the new pipe is pulling through at the same time

or manually remove parts of the interior and push pipe through in stages.

Many thanks for the prompt reply. Any suggestions on where along that run we can see the pipe and break into it?

nb - local dealer hopelessly useless - suggested rear side window had to come out to find the pipe. Can't see how removing a glued in window is going to help anything:boggle:

from The boot -

goes from bootlid thru rubber tube [passengerside] into roof space, along pasenger side runs down passenger front pillar and comes out behind front side panel then to pump on bottle

Rear washer on our Corsa B has gone - usual problem, the pipe has split where it passes from the body to the tailgate. Normally an easy one to fix BUT this one has gone wrong and we are wasting hours on it - the body end of the pipe has fallen into the inner wing and we just cannot find it - does anyone know exactly where the pipe runs from front to rear so we can break into it and run a new pipe to the tailgate.

Had the rear quarter panel and headlining off, but no sign of the pipe :(
