Question Water Leaking from rear window washers

Its getting really annoying, every once and a while water comes out of that little thing on the top of the rear windows that squirts water out. Its a stream that leaves ugly streaks, While I'm driving every once and awhile, it just randomly squirts down or more like a steady stream comes out then it stops and happens again later.
anyone have this happen to them? If so what did you do?

I haven't had that problem with my new Z but it did occasionally occur with my 300ZX if the reservoir was too full. Try using the washer for a while to reduce the amount of fluid. Do not continuously run the motor, but do it in squirts.

thanx for the tip, that really makes sense considering its a new car and it was full of water to begin with. I'll try it tomorrow morning and see if it helps

I had the same thing and I was pissed also, I think that he is right because after using it, it didn't happen again,

good luck

I believe there's a technical service bulletin about this issue.

Slow Down!!!!

Mine does this occasionally, too, but only under hard acceleration.
