Heated washer jets
Just browsing EBay and came across these

Says they will fit the j

Says a 12v ignition feed I know there was a problem with these on the insignia I think it was (catch fire) so was thinking a switch could be used so they are only on when you need them on.

Windscreen washer jets
Does anyone know if these can be changed for the old type that you could adjust with a pin?

Reason is the drivers side always shoots over the car tried adjusting it I can't get any lower, I've also damaged it trying now.

Washer pump dead?
Hi guys.
Few weeks back washer pump stopped working.
Took out fuse, cleaned t and put back in. Pump worked.
It's died again, removed fuse, cleaned it and put back in. This time no pump.
I've used one of the spares to see if the fuse was knackered but same thing.
No noise from the pump.

Anyone got any ideas I can look at? I'm no mechanic mind but am happy to give anything a go

GTC: washer jet adjustment tool.
My son has recently bought a 14-reg 2.0 Sri GTC and the  drivers-side washer jets are well of out of alignment;  a very common problem it seems.

Thinking of buying one of these: NOZZLE ADJUSTING TOOL’.

 
Anyone used one?...if so any tips/advice on how to use it correctly without buggering up the nozzles etc.

All replies gratefully received.

wheel locking nut washer
Hi all, a bit of a long shot but the metal washer that was inside my locking wheel nut key has gone missing making it near impossible to remove the wheel nut. I don't suppose either anyone has an old one knocking about (willing to pay for postage) so I can slot it in and get my wheels off? Thanks in advance

Washer jet upgrade / change?
Is there some kind of mod or upgrage to the mist washer jets on the astra j. The mist / standard ones dont seem that great and half of it goes over the car. I have adjusted many times but never seem to get it just right for driving or when at a stand still. There must be a better jet to buy or upgrade to?

Washer Motor stopped (front & rear)
Hi,
My old Astra G used to occasionally freeze up this time of year but you could still hear the pump whirring.

On my GTC both the front and rear washers have stopped working and I cannot hear the pump whirring - Is this a known issue and where can I start looking to troubleshoot it please?

Yes it has a full reservoir



Driving to work today in the dark with freezing fog was seriously bum clenching.....use the wipers and everything smeared...it was like looking through a bat
