Product Information

Full details

The METZGER 2220008 Washer Fluid Pump is an electric, dual-pump solution designed for front-fitting vehicle applications, including many Audi, BMW, Mini, Opel, VW, and Mercedes-Benz models. Its key benefit is restoring effective windshield and rear window washing functionality, especially for vehicles equipped with a rear wiper. A caveat is its specific compatibility, requiring verification against RPO codes (C25, not HLE) and OEM part numbers for a correct fit. This pump features two connectors and is a direct replacement for specific OE part numbers, ensuring reliable fluid delivery for a clear view in all weather conditions.

FAQs

How do I know if this pump is compatible with my vehicle?

Verify compatibility by cross-referencing the OEM part numbers provided (BMW: 67 12 8 377 987, MERCEDES-BENZ: A 204 866 02 21, etc.) and ensuring your vehicle has RPO code C25. Checking the specific vehicle fitment list for models like VW Golf IV or Audi A3 is also essential.

What is RPO code C25 and why is it important?

RPO codes are manufacturer options. C25 likely designates a specific feature or configuration of the washer system (e.g., including a rear wiper). It's crucial because this pump is designed for that specific configuration and is *not* for vehicles with RPO code HLE.

Can this pump be used for vehicles without a rear wiper?

While it is a dual pump, it's designed for vehicles that *utilize* both front and rear washer functions. If your vehicle only has a front washer, a single pump might be sufficient, but compatibility should still be verified.

Does this pump come with hoses or electrical connectors?

The product description specifies it is an electric, dual pump with 2 connectors. However, it typically does not include new hoses or electrical harnesses unless explicitly stated; these are usually reused from the original installation.

Where is the washer fluid pump usually located?

The washer fluid pump is typically located in or attached to the windshield washer fluid reservoir, which is usually found under the hood of the vehicle.

How long does a washer fluid pump typically last?

The lifespan of a washer fluid pump can vary depending on usage and environmental factors, but they are designed to last for many years. Failure is often due to electrical issues, wear and tear, or running the pump dry.

What type of washer fluid should I use?

Use a quality windshield washer fluid designed for your climate. In colder regions, ensure it has a low freezing point. Avoid using plain water, as it can freeze and damage the pump and lines.

Troubleshooting

No washer fluid dispensed (front or rear)

Check electrical connection to the pump. Verify washer fluid level. Inspect fluid lines for blockages or leaks. Confirm pump is receiving power when the washer switch is activated.

Weak or intermittent spray

Ensure the washer fluid reservoir is full. Check for any obstructions in the washer nozzles. The pump may be failing and require replacement if fluid lines and nozzles are clear.

Pump is making unusual noise

This could indicate the pump is running dry or is obstructed internally. Check fluid level and inspect for blockages. If the noise persists, the pump may need replacement.

Only front or rear washer works

This suggests a potential issue with the dual-pump mechanism or its electrical delivery. Verify that the vehicle is equipped with a dual-pump system and that the pump is the correct OE replacement for this function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of the METZGER 2220008 Washer Fluid Pump typically involves accessing the washer fluid reservoir, disconnecting the old pump, and installing the new one. This process may require removing components near the reservoir. Ensure electrical connections are secure and fluid lines are properly attached. It is recommended to consult a vehicle-specific repair manual or a professional mechanic for detailed installation steps.

Compatibility: Before purchasing, verify compatibility using the provided OEM numbers: 67 12 8 377 987 (BMW), A 204 866 02 21 (MERCEDES-BENZ), 8260A021 (MITSUBISHI), 1450059 (OPEL), 1J6 955 651 (VAG). Crucially, confirm your vehicle has RPO code C25 and *not* RPO code HLE. Check vehicle fitment lists for models such as VW Golf IV, Audi A3, Mercedes-Benz C-Class T-model, Opel Insignia, BMW Z3, Skoda Octavia, Seat Leon, Mitsubishi Colt VI, Mini Hatchback, and Smart Fortwo Coupe.

Care: The primary care for this component involves ensuring the washer fluid reservoir is adequately filled with appropriate washer fluid. Avoid running the pump dry, as this can cause damage. Periodically check the fluid lines for any kinks or leaks. Keeping the reservoir clean can also help prevent debris from entering the pump.
