Windscreen Washer jet question

[MickyBlue]

Simple one really.

On a new T5 facelift Cali can you adjust the jets?

There's nowt in the main VW manual or the Cali suppliment :?

Great question . I have just been outside to have a look although a little dark they look like they move up and down
Without the need for a pin. They are tucked right under the top lip of the bonnet. Why do you ask?

 

[MickyBlue]

I spotted the jets under the edge of the bonnet, the reason being the driver side seems to spray a bit 'low' and hits the wiper spoiler so most seems to miss the screen.

I had a bit of a fiddle with my finger, as its dark, & using a torch I couldn't see how they adjusted. The 'old fashioned' pin/needle technique didn't look right given it's a mist spray not a jet.

I hope that makes sense

 

[calikev]

Yes it looks like a little slide that moves up and down I presume it raises and lowers the jet

 

[MickyBlue]

OK ta.

I will have to look in daylight. Just thought someone may have the knowledge

They do have a bit of adjustment in them, there is a lip that you can use to adjust them up and down with your finger. Can be done with the bonnet open or closed.

cheers

Just noticed that in the instructions for 'VW Windscreen Clear' concentrate that it states Can be used in all models, must be used for fan-type jets.

Thanks chaps.
Its a lot clearer in daylight, and less frozen than last night.
Just didn't want to break anything
