New pressure valves arrived (two way & three way). I fitted them both & the pressure coming to the nozzles is definitely better. However, you were right… its the nozzle (one is poor). The passenger one sprays like a fan/V shape as it should, but the driver’s side nozzle sprays in one spot. Its not just a dribble coming from the driver’s side now, so its better than nothing & the windscreen can be cleared.

Volvo told me my nozzles were heated & quoted £33 plus VAT each. Do you or anyone know any cheaper aftermarket alternatives, or a way of cleaning the existing? Seems a lot for a piece of plastic!

How do I change direction of the water from the nozzles? The passenger one is partially spraying the windscreen & the rest of the fluid is thrown over the passenger wing mirror!
