Windscreen Wash Bottle... 2010 E550
Hello again Folks...;
Well here I am again... Now that I've had her for a few days, and have cataloged a few pestering problems, I've run in to a few more. I had an oil service done (I couldn't believe how much oil she took... a real guzzler...) When they topped off the WW bottle, it started leaking till it emptied. It took awhile but it's bone dry. So I decided to check it out and I could see just a little of the bottle. Most cars have these up where they are accessible, but this one is buried. I can't tell if the bottle is cracked, or is the hose disconnected. Can someone give me a little "Block of Instruction" as to where to get some help?? YouTube has a few video's, but wrong year and model....
Again....Thank you very much for your time
Fred

Funny thing is that when i was buying my 550 it had a leak at a WW reservoir. Which was later fixed at a dealer. I guess the seal was bad where the connector is at or smth , they never told me what exactly it was.

In 2000's MB got bad supplier of rubber parts and washer pump grommet was one of them.
In the past I went on junk yard and pulled the grommet from 1980's era MB and it work perfectly.
Same with cable/hoses holders.
My 2008 MB drives with 30 years old holders as those made in W124 were/are excelent quality.
