Is there a way to change wiper nozzle direction for passenger side? :roll: On my car it sprays too high where the wiper can't reach to clean. So that way on that area the windscreen remains wet and after a while looks dirty. I looked at nozzle but it seems static, not like another nozzles I've seen before where you can adjust the direction with a pin. I want to make it spray a bit lower and inward to the middle of windshield.

I recall reading a Mazda document a couple of years ago that said you could adjust the aim of the washer jets with a thin wire or pointed object.

However, on my car at least, the aim is fixed. I felt the driver's side could do with raising but my dealer confirmed they are not adjustable.

If the nozzle is spraying at the wrong angle because it's damaged, you should be able to get a new one fitted under warranty.

This diagram shows where the jets of water are supposed to hit the windscreen:
