Hi Chaps,

While whiping down my windscreen on my Volvo 460i 1.8s (think the "S" stands for slow) the other day I managed to "knock off" one of the windscreen washer jets, I tried to "push it back on" only to disover I had broke it. "Not a problem" I though, "I'll just pop down to the local car parts store and buy a replacement".

But oohhhh no, life is never so simple. Upon arriving at the store & asking if they had any of "these" (holding the now broken washer jet in my hand) they looked at me blanky. Eventually someone said, "Why did they make it so tall? Never seen one like that before, don't think we carry replacements for those". They did a full blown search on their system and "no match found" was the ever-recurring message.

So, here I am. A car which has a nice and clean passenger side of windscreen & a wonderfully smeary drivers side. In all honesty, its only a problem if I want to drive it any where. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) If I'm not too mistaken this is the main purpose of owning a car..?

tl;dr

Can anyone help me in locating a replacement? I've googled the shizz out of these things and my efforts remain fruitless.

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Groot T

Well unless you can find one in a junk yard, I guess it will have to be a volvo dealer, they are tall, to clear the wipers with the jet, and they just push fit through the rubbers.
