Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me with this problem to save me an arm and leg going to a dealer. I topped up my windscreen washer fluid with pre mixed winter mix supermarket stuff last night and when I tested it I noticed that the fluid was spraying out from under the bonnet of the car where the reservoir was (drivers side at front). This is really annoying as it was working perfectly fine before I topped it up, my car is a Honda Accord 2.2i CTDI Executive 2008 8th GEN. Would really appreciate some help with this. Many thanks.
 
Hi Tony you have a 7 th gen by the sounds of it.
They have headlight washers so it might be this.
Or it could be a hose leaking.
Best bet is get someone to use the washers and look under the bonnet to trace the water
 
Hi Brett, thanks for the info

I can confirm that I do not have headlight washers, I would guess that as you say there could be a hose leakage somewhere, I'll check this out this afternoon and get back on here if I have no joy

Thanks again
 
Tony all the ex accords have headlight washers bud.
There is a plastic cover under the headlight and rises up when the washers are used with the lights switched on.
