Anyone know what this is....

Quick question - I've had a MY19 V90 R-Design for 10 months, and just today noticed something for the first time...

Underneath the rear roof spoiler, to the right of the high level brake light, there's a funny plastic protrusion with a screw in it - see attached picture.

Anyone know what this is or what its for??

Rear washer nozzle

The obvious isn't always obvious, happens to me regularly

As a follow up to this I wanted to ask if anyone knew whether this slit can be rotated. As you can see this slit points towards the right hand side of the screen instead of towards the middle of the screen where the blades would wipe over it. I am very frustrated by the fact that I can't get the back windscreen clean properly as it seems to spray mainly beyond the arc of the wipers. Seem like a very strange design flaw, is anyone else aware of this and has any solutions.

Stick a pin or needle in and adjust the spray nozzle.
