My rear washer squirts then wipes, front wipes before it squirts which means a dry wipe not good.
Is this the norm

My front washers squirt first then wipes, as you say not good for wipers to operate first.
Mine squirt first too, then wipe. And mine do one extra wipe after about a couple of seconds, just to mop up any excess drips etc.

So any adjustment for this?
I know on some vehicles there used to be a non-return valve in the washer pipe to stop fluid in the pipe draining back to the reservoir, don't know if Seats have anything like this, maybe in the pump itself? Also might be an idea to check to see if there are any leaks in the pipe, one common area is in the passenger (L/H) kick panel.

There no doubt is a valve close to the pump, but I'm sure the nozzles have one as well, when cleaning them, its nigh on impossible to blow them through ftom jets to base
