Hi Guys,

This has been getting gradually worse in the last year or so. Every time I pull away with any kick, or put my foot down from cruising, I get a dribble down my back window from where some washer bottle fluids loses some water out of the squirter. It's like an old man with bladder control issues, you surprise him and he leaks a little :lol: . Obviously it's no major issue, but it does mean I have to run the rear wiper quickly with a little more fluid to clear the rear window. And I'm sure other tourer owners will vouch that the rear wiper is pretty poor. In my experience, even knew ones are quick to loose their tightness and you don't get an even clean, with gaps in the middle and across the top.

Is there a simple fix for this, or do I just need to live with it! Any suggestions?
 
Iv nether heard this on hear so its new to me.I would say at a guess all you need is a new nozzle on the rear squirter.
The one at the min must be damaged.
 
Not had this problem on my tourer but did have it one my civic hatchback but afraid never got round to sorting it, cant see it being much though either the spray jet or the one way valve thing is playing up.
