Hi guys - suffering the same issue myself with the washer bottle chucking the entire contents. I already have the 5.3L bottle as part of the winter pack fitted (Headlight washers fitted), but the previously mentioned part number (Part: 1J0 955 453 L)the one for the larger bottle?

Was trying the remove the flippin thing in the cold and wet today only to manage taking the top bolt off, but looking at this its best to remove bumper and headlight to get at the fecker......?!?!?

Best to replace bottle anyway or try and repair old faulty one.......?

PS - I didnt have any Concentrate in the bottle either so i know its my own fault...... :cry:

IIRC there is a bolt holding it  at the bottom and the only way to get the bottle  out is by removing the bumper and headlight.  It's physically impossible otherwise

The part number is for the larger bottle  :wink:

For the the price i'd get a new one.  Don't forget your washer fluid too  :tongue:

Ironically i had just purchased the washer fluid with the weather in mind, but too little too late...... :cry: :cry:

will have to fit new monster bottle before the MOT in March as i dont think the old 2 litre coke bottle of water in the boot will do any good for the annual test me thinks.... :laugh:

Will post a price for new bottle etc if not already done by navmk4gti.....
