Installing Fan washers

[Deleted member 132246]

Fan jets have been on my 2018 FR for 2-1/2 years & no leaks. Big improvement over the standard washer jets.
I wish the same mod was available for my wife's 2010 Clio.

That's great to hear, cheers for replying

Just fitted these, now £30 for a pair of non heated ones from local VW dealer.

Fitted easily enough, on first drive found them too low like most others. Have used Torx 10 anti-clockwise 4.5 turns until I felt some resistance, tried and it was a bit too high in the driveway, some going onto roof. So turned it back 1 turn clockwise, still a bit high but I’ll leave it to see what it’s like when driving.

I found it fiddly to adjust in place, so I unclip them from the bonnet to adjust, without disconnecting from the pipe though.

Anyone got an eBay item no for these? Been looking to do this for ages on my mk3 cupra as the standard jets are absolute rubbish.

If you want genuine ones it's better to get them from VW dealer, also are your ones heated?
The genuine ones should have a Torx, or maybe Allen screw adjuster.
Plently of fake, Chinese ones on eBay, some are good, lots are not.
