    Wiper wash nozzle blocked - how to clear?

    Hi,

    Have B7 Alltrack, 2nd time I know that washer nozzle for passenger windscreen is totally blocked. I'm guessing the "Bars Bugs" is gelling and causing the blockage. Any tips on clearing the blockage as I'm a few months off service and don't want to book in early for something so innocuous.
    Also recommendations on best washer additive to use?
    Thanks.

    Yes mate, Bars Bugs still on the shelf at your local servo. Was recommended to me years ago and has caused no issues until recently.

    I have a go at pulling it out and giving it a clean/blow out.

    Hay mate, I have done the same mistake, mixed Bare Bugs with original liquid, it's now clogged, used thin guitar could to clear the blockade, but how did you managed to find a permanent solution.
