Hi,

My Windshield Washer Fluid is leaking... I haven't fully debugged it yet, but I suspect it's the pump that is leaking as it's coming from the general vicinity of the tank (and based on other reading). Now, the question is, how do I get at it... I suspect it's through the driver side wheel well, and I'm happy to experiment.

But I was wondering if someone had done a write-up on this or could provide some advice...

Thanks!

I replaced mine and it wasn't too bad.

In my case I wasn't sure if the pump or tank grommet or quick release o ring was leaking.

It was the pump. (note: if you have the headlight washer system then you will have 2 pumps)

I did search around a lot to find a good price on the pump

To access the pump you need to remove the liner inside the wheel well. (lots of torx screws.)

Remove the support bracket.

Remove the bolts that attach to the bottom of the tank.

Then remove the washer fluid tank. (I think that I removed the small tank in the engine compartment first)

Good luck

update: note the pump for the headlights and the pump for windshield are different pumps.

I should have mentioned that in the previous post.
