The water pressure on my washer jets is quite feeble. It seems to have been after the cold spell we just had (2015). Weirdly though, the pressure corrects itself if you open the bonnet and activate the jets.

Any ideas?

Sounds like the pipe is being crushed or kinked when the bonnet closes, reroute the pipe.

Sounds like you could be right, although not sire how they've become kinked :/ Many thanks I'll take a look in the morning :)

Looks like there is a spilt in the pipe between the bonnet and the sound insulation, off to the garage...
