I've just bought some must jets, how the hell do you remove the old washers? Ph3 btw

Push them up from underneath. Watch your fingers though, sharp edges around them!

Cheers buddy

No worries... About 50% chance you'll be back in a minute saying they aim too low if they're ebay ones...

I got mine from ebay and they were fine. Must've been lucky considering the amount of people that get the wrong ones!

I had an argument with an ebay supplier where I got mine lol, they stated the part number in the title and were adamant they only sell one type....umm, you're selling the wrong type then, or change the title!

I did find a genuine set in fiat dealer packaging for just 6.50 the pair though, on ebay as well, csn post the link if anyone stryggling to find the right ones.

Push side to side from underneath, can be a bit stiff sometimes

I ended up using pliers to twist/turn them from underneath. Wrecked my standard washer jets doing it that way but i have very little patience and they were going in the bin anyway

Your a psychic!! :O lol States part number in listing n all well annoyed

Out of curiosity, how low do they spray? How far up the windscreen does the top of the jet reach?

Somewhere between half and 1/3 up the windscreen id say

Mine (the wrong ones) sprayed just above the wipers lol

And the proper ones about 3/4 of the way up? I've had 2 306's with mist jets and they always have 1 jet spraying 10cm or so lower than the other, well weird

The times ive had the wrong 1s they seem to just spray at the wipers. When i got the right 1s they come in a Fiat bag like Tom said

Luckily I had more patience, just lol as I've just refitted the old ones unblocked and aligned them

Top tip for you, use gloves and keep the washer tubing on, pinch the pipe tightly underneath the end of the jet and push straight up. Hasn't failed for me yet and my jets are still useable if need be.

Anther top tip is, if you are going to just take the tubes off and push them out from underneath, make sure you at least have a cloth or something over them to stop them falling down inside the scuttle.......especially if you got the new one and find out its wrong and push it out.....down into the scuttle

Just ordered a set from the link you gave. Fingers crossed lol

Well look what arrived. I fitted them but they still seem like scuttle washer jets haha but it seems with these your able to angle the fronts up a bit but time will tell if they stay like that :/ I'll give an update in a few days.[attachment=21679]

You cant angle them at all.... Should hit the middle of the screen!

(15-02-2015, 10:14 PM)Toms306 Wrote: [ -> ]You cant angle them at all....  Should hit the middle of the screen!

This. They sit flush to the bonnet, well mine do and definately aren't adjustable 

I don't mean the actual jet is adjustable, sorry should have been clearer. I've put them on so the fronts are not quite down flush and they are fine then. If I put them flush they spray the bottom of the screen :/

Not having much luck with these are you?

Sounds like you have a broken bonnet then...

Lol as with trying to sort it pulling to the right and shocking handling

(15-02-2015, 10:53 PM)Toms306 Wrote: [ -> ]Sounds like you have a broken bonnet then...

Damn it I thought that was the only bit that wasn't broken

Search on ebay for the Xsara mist jets, I fitted mine yesterday and they're excellent!

They're the ones I already linked...

I've come to the Conclusion that my washer motor isn't performing 100%

Something else broken on your car? That makes a change...
