odd problem
 

I've noticed a weird little problem with my car lately. During hard acceleration and aggressive driving, my rear window washer nozzle has a tendency to leak and drip down the back window. Anyone else encountered this problem?

I have noticed the same thing. It was annoying at first , but I got used to it.:headshot:

This problem was reported in earlier threads.

People got it fixed by their dealer I beleive.

Actually, I don't think anyone got it fixed - it's just the way it is, and there's not much that can be done about it (except for lightening your foot a little - yeah right! ;)).

Now where's the fun in that. :D

Think of it this way....
Your car is like a puppy. When it gets excited, it PEEs!
Some girls think that's cute.:eek:

coming from a jealous owner of a 2nd gen, i'd say - jam a pin in there and break it off ;)

Who knows - maybe that'd make the frigging thing actually SPRAY instead of just piss down the rear window when you hit the switch. One of my very, very few complaints about the car - that rear washer nozzle sucks. The dripping upon hard acceleration doesn't bother me - but the fact that it doesn't really "spray" , but kind of "dribbles" does.

Oh well - maybe some brave soul will stick a pin in there are see what happens. ;)

i'd replace it with one of those flash neon nozzles!:p

oh, wait a minute, no i wouldn't. frankly it doesn't surprise me that this is happening - my old c-rx had the same problem. i guess if you make the pump strong enough to work the back washer properly, the front nozzles will spray too hard?

still, i don't see why they couldn't just use a slightly smaller nozzle in the back to raise the pressure a bit - i wouldn't think it would need to be raised much - maybe this is a possible solution, replace it with an aftermarket piece?

its one thing i really miss about the old honda - rear windscreen wiper - all cars should have them!:(
