Some Mercedes-Benz SL550 owners report experiencing issues with the driver side windshield washer fluid system, including leaks at the reservoir and along the fluid lines. These problems can hinder the system's performance, especially if the washer fluid reservoir is not filled to the appropriate level. Additionally, some owners find that even when the washer fluid pump is operational, no spray occurs due to clogged nozzles, which can often be resolved by cleaning them with a fine pin. In cases where the driver side only sprays a small amount of fluid or barely functions, replacing the windshield washer pump may be necessary. If these issues persist, some owners recommend seeking technical advice from forums or knowledgeable individuals for detailed repair guidance.
