My windshield washer jets do not leak. The sopy water trail starts at my headlights. I think the airflow pushes the leaked water over the hood. It's only about a teaspoonful of water and only happens when using the windshield washer on the highway. I would imagin the water would just drip straight down if the car was parked.

No, the leaking you are seeing on the hood is coming from the winshield washer jets, everyone has that problem it seems, take it back to have a check valve installed by the dealer. The headlight washers spray water all over the place (at least when the car is standing still!), but I do not see them leaking at all.

Has anyone noticed the Power Headlight washer leaks a little when you use the windshield wash function. When you do this at high speed it leaves a trial of soapy water on the hood (bonnet). I have Anthracite so it is noticeable
