Bentley Continental GT/GTC/Flying Spur DIY Thread

Hello @TWL,
There are actually two pumps, one for the headlights, and the other for the windshield, so the low pressure on both in the same time frame may be the result of another issue.
If both are having low pressure issues, I would look at what type of fluid you are using in the tank, as I had issues some time back with my A8L W12, I was using the orange rain x, and not only did it slow down the flow, but it coated the level sensor with a film that kept the sensor from sensing fluid, so I had a constant "low washer fluid" warning, so I put some hot water in to flush the system and sensor, well it worked, but I found that I actually had the water a bit to hot, and melted the tank at a certain level, so I couldn't fill to the top, lesson learned.
Pumps are numbers 9 and 10, and the assembly is located in the passenger side front wheel well, you could try some warm water to flush, or disassemble and clean the screen/inlet on each pump.
