I frequently notice what I believe are a few drops of washer fluid in the cowl area by the passenger wiper arm where the washer hose is attached. Is the supply hose replaceable or would I need a new wiper arm (which I have no idea how to replace). Can anyone please shed some light on this for me. Thanks

Probably just need the hose, definetly replaceable. Just pull it off and check for any cracks or splits on the ends.

Replacing neither will make a difference. The fluid pushes out during acceleration. There have been many threads on this forum about it. If it bothers you, there is a one way fluid diode that Ford uses that you can put in the hose. There was a part number given to buy the correct part, but I don't have it handy. I'd go to Google and type in C5 Corvette washer fluid leak, you'll probably come upon it.

PS. All C5's do it to some extent, it's not a broken part causing it.

Haven't had it happen on mine?

The fuller the reservoir, the more likely you'll get it. It's just a few drops in the cowl area. It dries and leaves little spots if you don't dry it. I've never had one that didn't.
