    The windscreen washers on our S40 have stopped working. On examination,
    I find that the T-piece that splits the water between the two outlets
    has a red part with a hole in - and the water's just squirting out under
    the bonnet. Has some kind of mount come loose, and why on Earth does the
    T-piece have a hole in it?

    The t fitting is junk. The red section is a check valve that keeps washer
    solvent in the lines going to the washer jets. Replace the T fitting with
    the later version filter T fitting available from Volvo.
