new to us - a couple of problems

[JonA]

HI

 

We have recently acquired an 2006 A3 2.0tdi - really nice but a copuple of problems cropped up this week...

 

the rear wash system is leaking ... i can see wash water dripping down the offside rear pillar - behind the trim.  so I guess that either the pipe has split or a connector has come apart.

Can anyone give advise as to how I remove the trim to investigate, it looks as though quite a bit will have to come off?

 

the reversing lights stopped working.  obvious one is the bulbs but they are OK and I can't see from the handbook of there is a seperate fuse.  all the other elctrics seem fine...  the fog lamps in the same cluster work so ground is good.

Any advice on where to look to trace faults?

 

regards

Hi and welcome to the club!

 

The reverse light fault could be to do with the reverse light switch on the gear box. This can be quite a common fault.
