Windshield Washer Fluid Reservoir Tank Nut 113 955 481 Options

[doug_b_928]

Does anyone know where I can get the nut (113 955 481) that holds the washer fluid line to the bottom of the reservoir? I tried the local Porsche and VW dealerships and nada. The part number comes up in a few places in Europe but I'm hoping it's available in North America. I'd have thought it would be on CiP1 but it didn't come up when I searched there. Here's an image of what comes up under the part number:



Also, does anyone know if the hose at this connection had an expanded end on it so that the nut will hold it onto the nipple? It doesn't look like it in the PET diagram, shown below:



Here's an image of my tank with the line on it. It does look like the hose expands over the nipple so does the nut hold it on without a flange on the line because the hose is expanded over nipple?

Excellent, George. Do you know if the line needs a special end?

[doug_b_928]

Does anyone know if a flanged hose end is needed in this location?

I have the same question. If you watch the attached video it looks like there is no special end on the hose. I'm going to try this connection this weekend, will post a photo and notes if it works.

just installed the hose onto the bottle, with the nut. Can 100% confirm there is no other item needed except your washer line hose and the nut. It takes a bit to get the hose through the nut. Once you have it through the nut just pull enough through the nut to land it on the nipple and then tighten the night, which will secure the hose. I used some hand sanitizer to lube the hose so it slide easier, worked great. Here are the photos.
