Default MK4 golf washer jets - 09-29-2009 , 07:19 PM






My washer jets do hit the window when sprayed, but quite a bit shoots
onto the rood and sunroof area which shamefully has got me unaware a few
times

Is there a way to shorten the spray pattern and aim it more directly
onto the screen ?

Thanks

Most jets are adjustable. Place a very thin wire in the jet and in yr
case lower it.
U can adjust it up, down, right or left.
DO NOT use a needle as it will probably break and then u will have to
replace the jet.

IIRC you need a special tool for Golf IV fanjects, but I've never tried it.

As they are fan jets....Do not stick a wire in them, it buggers them right
up. There is no way to direct them from side to side. This is due to there
design, they cover a large amount of the screen. You can direct them up or
down by moving the bar on the front of the jet just below were the fluid
comes out.

Hope this helps
