Washer fluid leak

I think my 240d is possessed. Noticed a freakin' PUDDLE under the car. No, not antifreeze. The car is seeping blue juice between the windshield schpritzer pump and the plastic tank. Is the grommet that holds the pump available, and is this the correct part?

Usually you can get an aftemarket pump cheap at an Advanced Auto Store or O'Reily's. I replaced one recently, Kia, and it came with grommet. $20-$30 for both.

I have replaced several w126 windshield washer pump grommets. Call Phil at Fastlane (sponsors of this forum) and he will get you set up. If you wait until you order a bunch of stuff (over $100), you can get free shipping. That's what I usually do with the small rubber stuff --- add it to the list.

I've seen two typical leak points on these older cars. 1) the grommet at the pump 2) the plastic check valve.

Here's the part numbers and diagram for the 240D:

I found a replacement grommet on eBay for $5 after shipping. Fixed my leak right up.
