Had my rear washer jet apart today. I'd assumed it wasn't working because the jet was blocked, like the last 4 i've owned!

I believe there's an in line non return valve, although I'm not sure where it's located.

Mine ain't right. I'll be pressing it for ages and nothing will happen then all of sudden screen wash will appear. Kinda like a delayed reaction. FFRR TD6 HSE

My local service agent Guava fixed mine in ten minutes while I had a cup of coffee, free of charge. Blocked non return valve apparently, frequent issue so they say. 2018 Range Rover Autobiography

Hmmmmmmmm, i've definately got some ideas from that. My non return valve IS blocked but I took it off and tried it without. I wonder if it can drain back so quickly that nothing would come out without a valve attached?

I would just replace the NRV. i took mine apart and not worth the hassle for a £3 part. when mine was off made sure i had loads of water coming through. What was there was pretty crappy until flushed! |

Think it must be something other than the NRV. Can't get it to fire water out even with it off.

I had to do my pump due to this problem. When you get the wheel off, you dont need to remove the entire wheel arch liner, just undo enough to peel the corner back and its flexible enough to fold out of the way. Theres three pumps come in to view - make sure you get the right one.
