I've got a leaking screenwash bottle. It looks to be coming from the rubble seal between the bottle and the pump.
Mine is the taller (more expensive) type bottle - http://www.minispare...id=34618&title=
But I can't see anywhere that sells just the rubble seal.
I've put my mouth over the end of the pump, finger over the other end and blew and the pump appears to not be cracked.
Any solutions, if I can't get another seal?

Cheers

Luke

Sorry, meant to post in technical, can someone move it?

You can get just the seal by itself but in all honesty, in all the times I've seen this (not that many I'll admit) a new grommet and pump didn't fix the leak. Only a new bottle does that.

Moved.

Thanks.
Any links to where to buy a new grommet?
or thinking of using a bit of silicone sealant. think that might to the job.

It's BAU2043A, try Moss or Somerford. I think all you will do with silicone is make a mess.
