Front windsheild sprayer

Post by renik »

I was just wondering if the front windshelid sprayers are supposed to spray 6 solid streams of fluid on the windsheild. Its like there are 6 powerfull waterguns shooting at the windsheild. A lot of washer fluid comes out but it does not seem to clean the window properly. If this is normal, is there a way to adjust the sprayers to become more like a mist instead?

ah, silver...yes you can adjust those, need 1 needle and stick it in the nozzle, and MOVE SLOWLY, you'll see after you get the hang of it, how much alittle really is.

The '03-'04 models do have 3 jets per washer nozzle. The 2005 makes do with only one rectangular opening per nozzle.Perhaps, someone can check the '05 to see if it is any better/worse, if better, perhaps you could replace the nozzles.I would guess the 2005 nozzles make the washer fluid spray a smaller amount of fluid in a wider pattern.
