I would also check for a pinch in the line, the way it is route can allow it to get crushed in between things pretty easily.

Russ, Sounds like you have a obstruction in the line somewhere or nozzles clogged. The nozzles on my 308 are also somewhat loose also.

Mine are kind of loose too. If I remember correctly there are nuts on the back or something to tighten them up. It's a pretty simple system on the QV. Just one motor runs on the bottom of the tank and pumps it up a small clear tube which breaks into the two sprayers. Should be comparable on the 328.

Just took delivery of my 88.5 328 and will be regularly tapping into the collective wisdom of this forum. My first minor DIY is to fix the window washers. There is water in the reservoirand the motors make the right sounds but no fluid comes out.

The units have a small silver s fixture with a slot which looks like it should have a whole for the spray but they don't.

Also the spray heads are very losely attached to the car but when I get behind them after removing the plastic shroud around the units I cannot by feel find anything that I could tighten up.

Any insights would be appreciated.

By the way. Great car with no disappointments.
