Hello,

I have the heater washer jets on a 2017 F56 One, after cleaning out the filter in the washer bottle, and blowing the jets out with my airline one of them has still lost the spray pattern and is weak. I’ve swapped them to check the pipe flow and it remains the same whether on the left or right.

Is there an after market replacement or even a non heated one from another car that fits? The OEM mini version seems ridiculously expensive for a washer jet and even ebay they are coming up at £50 for a used one?

Thanks

Are you sure you can't unblock it? Have you tried a needle or perhaps a bit of paper clip wire. Or perhaps a chemical solution like soaking it in limescale remover. Clutching at straws a bit here to save you £50.

Sorry should have mentioned, I have tried needles and small wire ie oldschool way but it doesn't seem to work. Compressed air blows through fine.

I have not soaked in a de-scaler though because it’s an electrical component.

Thanks
