    i suspect the bottle neck connection will be adrift so what is filling up the tube leaks out, down to the level of the main bottle. unfortunately i think it is going to be behing the wheel arch liner.
    might be a relatively easy fix though.

    I have exactly the same problem with my p1 V70, so I have avoid filling the neck up. Think mine is just replaced in the engine compartment, but do you have the necks in stock please?

    sorry mark, the pipe is something we cant get. i never seen one split, unless because of accident so its probably popped out- unless you have already looked at it?
