you need to remove the rear upper trim panel it just pops in but takes a fair bit levering off once off you can see the wiper motor and water hose check there first to see if you have water that far , To access the rear jet theres two ways one which i've not used apparently is to get the wiper blade vertical and then pop it off it's located at the base of the arm pointing to the side ,the other way which gives you loads of room is to remove the rear spoiler by undoing the four nuts then sliding the spoiler towards the rear and up and resting it on the roof L322 2008 vogue

Getting the blade vertical wont help, it'll hinder, as the jet will be at it's closest to the spoiler... Best way is to fist remove the top plastic trim inside the tailgate and check that it's not a blocked nonreturn valve....

When I did mine I don't recall fisting anything Seriously....I removed the trims etc and did mine when I replaced the rear camera. Strip the pipes and motor off. blow all the tubes through with a bike pump and rinse through with hot water, and refit. Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........ |
