I know there are issues with the NRV for the rear wash but even if this was blocked, would you still hear pump for the rear going? Got a replacement pump sitting here as I've never even heard it going (only the windscreen) so just wanted to make sure!

Yes you should hear the rear pump running when rear wash is selected. Mine runs but does not pump screenwash. I also have a new pump to fit if required, after i check the NRV, as running does not mean pumping unfortunately.

My pump ran but nothing at the screen, the pipe had come off the nrv.
Bet you had a super clean rear N/S light cluster.

Yup, with the screen wash it added lustre to my cluster.

ok so i much be either daft, or blind or both...
spent time this aft fixing my Sub, and thought i'd try have a look at the rear wash while i was there...
i've routed around behind the rear light cluster.. ( on both sides ) and all i can find are wires.. ( and the towbar electrics on NS)... no washer pipes, never mind a NRV or filter...
any thoughts ?

Should be around top of N/S rear lamp cluster behind trim panel. May vary a bit but that is where it is supposed to be. Look at RAVE under Wash/Wipe. It gives a routing layout.

Look in Workshop manuals > #84 Wipers and Washers > Description and operation.
