Noticed that on my 987 Boxster S that the passenger side headlamp washer is sitting more into the bumper than the drivers side, it should be sticking out more and looking even in height with the other but isn't. It still works fine though, but how do I fix this?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

OK, perhaps you have left the car out in the frost but the nozzles are designed to pop out in the event frost so that the pipes do not burst. However, and in any case, the way to rectify this is as follows: First remove head lights to gain better access to the nozzle opening. Insert a small flat head screwdriver (with tape on the head to prevent damage to nozzle) into the opening in the nozzle head and pull the spray nozzle up and out (there is quite a suction on the nozzle so a second pair of hands is useful here to hold nozzle up from the stalk when it is up). The nozzle head the separate from the nozzle stalk and it should be pushed fully home, if it isn't then push down on the nozzle head. Repeat on the other side. Refit head lights
Thanks for the advice. I had a look at some other Porsches and the passenger one is pushed too much into the bumper, the drivers side one is at a perfect height. I am not sure what it could be, might mean a trip to the dealer.
Mine does the same thing. What was your final outcome?
