Leaking Rear Wash Pipe

[LukeFR]

Evening All,

Over last few days, I have been getting very little water to wash the rear window and just though 'Oh, it's blocked 'cos of the cold'. However, looking at the rear seat it became apparent it's leaking underneath the seat (the seat that is now under my radiator drying).

Checked the pipe from the boot until it goes into the car and all OK, howver the leak is coming from where the back of the rear seat meets the bottom of the rear bench behind the plastic moulding, I suspect a cut pipe.

Anyone else had this issue?

Common, I'll try and find a link (or search forums for it)

Did a search earlier, but couldn't find anything.

I know it's common to pop off at motor end but not anywhere else.

its under the FAQ's

EDIT - just to add as I did this repair myself as the stealer failed, it was really difficult to get my hands in as the connection was a couple of inches to the left of the hole, in the end I had to use angled long nose pliers to grip the pipe I couldn't see and pushed to the point of really hurting my hand to connect it properly, been fine since and now I use LIDL -60 screenwash so no more freezing issues although unless well diluted it doesn't wipe off very clear when driving.
