Greetings Volvo Lovers!
I love my 2005 xc70 - it's having a small problem though...the washer fluid runs out under the driver's side headlight when I pull the handle. Now when I look up at the area leaking it is all boxed in and I can't see the wash water line going to the headlight. Should I start pulling things apart? I really wouldn't make a big deal out of it, but winter is coming and I use my washer to keep the windshield from icing over. Last winter everything worked fine....then spring came and not fine.
If I could just know where to start and what to do with the hose (line) when I do find the darn leak.
That's it; hope you can help. I surely wouldn't want to call Click & Clack!

Welcome,

It sounds like the hose from the motor has cracked. It happens often so you are going to have to dig into it to find the leak.

 

Could you be a little more specific...if the leak is up front by driver's headlight, do I go through the light? Is there a diagram of the wash water route from the motor? Then when I find the leak, how would you recommend I plug it?
Not helpless, just lost.
