Default Anyone else have this problem??

When I get on it in first gear, my rear window washer sprayer leaks. It's really annoying when the car is clean. Anyone have this problem or could suggest a possible fix???

I have the exact same problem. Thankfully it has been raining in the Bay Area for the past couple of weeks, but it is really annoying.

I think it might be a faulty check valve in the system for the rear washer jet. I will bring it up when I take her in to the dealer for a service.

Yup, first noticed it after I finally got the car through the Break-in period about 2.5 weeks ago.

I had this at first, but haven't noticed it recurring lately

I think someone said that is because the washer fluid in the tank is too full, just use your washer few times to make the fluid level go down a bit. That should fix it.....

Also when you use your washer (front AND rear), do the fluid spray out of the washer jet, or just kind of pour out...???

Mine does it no matter what. Last week my washer tank was near empty and the low-fluid light on the dash would come on durning hard cornering....yet my washer STILL leaked on full-throttle first gear sprints.

My fluid always sprays out with authority...
