It's at the top of the wiper under the brake light , think you will have to make sure the wiper is half way through its cycle and switch the engine off so that the blade wiper arm at sitting exactly in the middle of the screen … ====================================

I have just recently replaced the non-return valve on the rear washer. It is like new now with a healthy squirt. It was taking forever for the water to come out as it was all running back down the tubes! £2.50 from halfords, and the stealer was wanting £80+ just to investigate.. Previously..

Hey Contraband - Would be good to get a description of what you did for others suffering the same common problem.
