Oh Oh...first technical gremlin strikes!

Here we go.....3 weeks back into a Land Rover product and something packs up!

Has anyone else had their windscreen washers (both front and rear) pack up yet ? (really good timing at this time of year too...what with all the dirt/salt/grit on the roads)

This better not be the start of things to come, I am REALLY brassed off!!!

Is this a known fault ? or just another great electric unknown wiring issue that has plagued LR for many years ?!

Back to the Dealers it is next week 10 Lamborghini LP560-4 Spyder
10 Rangey Sport HSE TdV6 (with Overfinch bling)
10 Audi Q5 2.0Tdi DSG S-Line
No 1 on the list for an Evoque (for wife obviously!)

That is strange - I've not had a problem with it with my RRS.

Do let us know how it get on at the dealer. I'll keep an eye on mine.

Cheers

I have never had any car with this fault. I'd be surprised if there is anything seriously wrong, perhaps a loose connection at the motor or something.

What are the symptoms? Just absolutely nothing happens? L319 D4 HSE

You DID check the washer fluid level, didn't you? Smile I remember that my Sport was delivered to me with that reservoir nearly empty.The pump is so quiet I also thought about a malfunction, until I checked the fluid level.

Yup, as BCP says, check the fuses. There has been a run of this in D3s, almost all happening around the same time.

I'd expect a new TSB to appear from LR anytime now, though if you ring LRCS they're bound to say as they always do that no-one else has reported it, seems to be their favourite lie

The power of the internet eh....I bet Dealers hate places like this where a load of 'know it alls' get together and share better product knowledge than they have LOL
