leak in windscreen washer piping in TT 2+0

    I have a slow leak in my rubber tube between rear washer water storage tank and front washer jets.
    It is a 1991 TT 2+0 so tank is in the boot
    The leak takes 24 hours to drain the water storage tank
    Have check storage tank and tubes that I can see no leaks.
    The leak is somewhere near the rear wheel on the passengers side just out of sight from water that has dropped on the ground
    Has anyone experience this same problem and how did you over come it?
    Or does anyone have a diagram showing how the tube runs from the rear tank to front engine bay
    Help
    Many thanks

    My bet is that one or both of the motors are leaking on the washer bottle.

    One of the motors is near the side mount intercooler on the driver's side inside the bumper there. The water tends to pool in the bumper so its not obvious where the leak comes from. Keep an eye out for rubber vac line with yellow bands on it, from factory that indicates that its a washer line, never connect these to actual engine vac lines!
