LEAKY WASHER BOTTLE

[NigelA]

For no obvious reason the main washer reservoir on the grey car started to leak. Replaced the rubber grommet/washer where the pump goes in and checked the aperture on the reservoir was clean before doing this. But it's still leaking. So what can it be please?

Plastic split somewhere?

If its the standard type ive got one here if you need it?

[NigelA]

Thanks, eko. There is no obvious plastic split but will have a closer look at it. The bottle is the dual type found in the 325i.

[NigelA]

eko. What I should have written was let me check for the split first and then I may come back to you. Thanks for the offer.

Dual ones split wher they join together.

my bottle sprung a leak a while back, (single bottle type), i took it out and used bath silcone on the outside on all the joins, shes fine now.

[NigelA]

Thanks, Hyperion. Will try that one.

Thanks, Hyperion. Will try that one.

I hate seeing bodged up repairs like this on a BMW.
Get one from a scrapyard, or try JonB up the road in Bristol.

Thanks, Brian. Will ask Jon.
