Rear washer failure

[UKenGB]

Yup, it's the motor:-( But what motor? Yes it's the one on the LHS as you look from the front and it's the same as the one on the RHS (for the front washer), but when I go looking for a replacement, what other models use the same pump?

In fact if anyone has the part number handy, that would save me having to search for it, but in many cases parts are advertised for a particular model, so it would be useful to know what other models use the same part.

Also, someone on here mentioned getting a new pump for less than $20, no doubt in the US, but anyone know a good source here in the UK?

OK, found the part number and found the pump for sale for £6.45 delivered. So problem solved (hopefully).

Thanks anyway.

What's the part and where did you buy it from? I need one too. Is it easy to replace?

The part number for the E53 is 67128362154. I found a supplier in the UK so not much help to you I fear.

As for fitting it. Looks simple enough once the tank has been moved (which is just 2 'nuts' to remove). There's quite a few posts on here about how to do it. Probably not fair for me to simply copy the instructions here. Easy to find though if you search on 'rear washer'.

Pepe88, its the washer pump, number 4 in the pic.

Hope this is a bit more help.
