Adjusting spray jets for windscreen washer system

Use water-soluble pen to mark four points on windscreen.

Dimension a = 200 mm
Dimension b = 450 mm
Dimension c = 220 mm
Dimension d = 480 mm

Note:

Settings are calculated from outer edge of windscreen.

Aim special tool 3125 A at the points from each of the spray jets.

Notes:

The settings indicate the values for a moving vehicle, i.e. the spray from the jets is slightly offset when the vehicle is stationary.
Never use a needle or the like, as this would damage the water ducts in the spray jet.
Replace spray jet if water jet is uneven or cannot be adjusted to specified settings.

Who makes these pages, and how

TorqFix was built by a mechanic — after a 2,700 km drive with five roadside repairs that no diagnostic tool could explain.

The figures on this page come from manufacturer workshop documentation and are shown as they are. The page is assembled automatically from that data — it is not written by an AI. The AI works in the chat, where it answers for your specific car. It writes nothing here.

Variants of the same model differ. Cross-check torque against the factory manual for your engine before final tightening.
