Leaking Rear Washer

[VmW]

Any of your Mk6 GTI's have a leaking rear washer?  I have already brought mine to the workshop more than a month back to get it fixed but sadly it just got a bit worse. Based on two months of obsevations, the leak seems to occur during enthusiastic driving and manifests itself by streaks of washer fluid on the rear window.  I'm afraid some of the paint work at the bootlid has already been slightly affected.  I will ring the dealer again to get the thing fixed but really do not want to drive to the workshop as it is inconveniently located.  I am thinking of waiting till first service (around 6-8 months away) to get it fixed (again).  What would you guys do?  Think it's serious?

I have noticed mine dribbling water when I use the front screen washers only. Annoying because it makes a mess, but I can live with it. In fact, I had forgotten all about it until I read your post

haha.. sorry FroGTI.. to be honest, i'm not too concerned. its just annoying when you've just washed the car and the washer just dribbles onto the rear window.

Also do a search on the mk5 forum this was a common issue with the mk5 as well. Its just the way it is iirc.

Do you not consider it important to get medical advice as living in desert-like conditions with lots of sandstorms may cause irritation to your waterworks?
