Blocked Headlight Washer Jet - Again!

It is not long since  I UNBLOCKED  my right hand headlight washer jet, and it is blocked again. My MOT is due on 5the January, so need to get this sorted. I have asked Martin via the shop to see if he can supply and for a price. Just wondering if it is indeed a faulty nozzle or something else? I have looked in the screen wash bottle and it looks clean with no evidence of any sediment or sludge in the bottom. The R/H nozzle is the furthest from the pump, not sure if that would make a difference in case it is a sediment issue?

I have never had to replace a windscreen washer jet before, let alone a headlight one.

I am leaning towards a faulty nozzle 

My Gen3 used to block its window wash jets fairly regularly and the first to clear was the passenger side as that was closest to the pump. The problem is the alcohol evaporators out of the jets andit just leaves water which just freezes.

I changed it round so the drivers side is first,plus bought a lenthof copper tube and wrapped it round the radiator pipe to hear the water before it sprays on the windscreen.

Now the windscreen clears very quickly.

I wish it was as simple as a frozen nozzle, but it was September when it first got blocked, and this time a few weeks ago when it was still about 10⁰.

Thanks to Martin and the BigJimny shop, a replacement nozzle is on it way.

Thanks for a quick service!

My bottle looked clean enough but it was creating slime somehow I think it's a bacteria, anyway I am now using autoglym screen wash instead of carplan and it doesn't do it anymore.

If you have not done so already try pumping through a few LTRs of water / detergent with the offending nozzle removed before you fit the new one. It's possible it's debris in the tube, a fast flush hopefully will eliminate this and not simply block the new nozzle.
