The rear windscreen wash wipe is failing to do anything other than scratch the window today as there is no water squirting out. Any solutions/ common faults. The water bottle is full. It's not frozen.

The pipes run along the roof - they could be frozen. Do you use propper anti freeze/screenwash?

Blocked nozzles? It's a common problem. If left unfixed it can lead to the motor filling with screenwash fluid. Fairly poor design really.

I sent my car into LR for a same problem naively thinking it would be covered by the LR approved warranty. Sadly it was not and I paid about £20 to have the rear jet and one way valve cleaned.

Mine is playing up- if I push the stalk forwards, I can hear the motor running intermittently, but no water coming out of the back. Anyone else had this? 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded |

Can anyone point me in the direction of the NRV? |

Cheers. Mine sounds electrical though. If I hold the stalk forwards, it wipes and I can hear the washer bottle motor running intermittently. Sort of a stop start, then it stops altogether. I'm thinking its the contacts in the stalk itself. 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded |

You can buy the valve from you dealer for only £5...probably costs about 10p to make.

Just been out to check mine and the rear wiper arm is solid with corrosion. Where is the cheapest place to get a new one and what's the part number? |

You can try ebay but I reckon it would be quicker and easier and not much more just to get one from your local dealer. Discovery 4 HSE

I fitted a new rear arm a couple of weeks ago, cost around £20.00 from LR |

No idea my post would create such a flurry of responses; will have a play tomorrow.
