Did anyone here ever remove their washer nozzles and what is the trick to do that?
Thanks [/i]

Actual instructions, because this took me longer to work out than I'm proud to admit.
Keywords:
Windscreen Washer, Washer Jet, Washer Nozzle
- Open the bonnet.
- From the underside of the bonnet, use a flat-blade screw driver under the washer nozzle to gently lever the clip closed.
- Push/Lever the nozzle forwards towards the front of the car.
- The nozzle will now be clear of the body.

Hi
When you put it back, i found it easier to remove the plastic gasket first, put the nozzle back in then slip the gasket over it and gently push it under between the bonnet/hood and nozzle with a small flat screwdriver. I found cleaning the nozzles by removing them and leaving them in bleach for 30 minutes, them flushing them out with a large plastic syringe.
