Cheap Vauxhall Vivaro Washer Motor

The Vivaro runs across two main generations: the Mk1 (2001–2014) and the Mk2 (2014–2019), with the Mk3 arriving from 2019 onwards. Washer motors from within the same generation are generally strong candidates for interchange, but crossing the Mk1-to-Mk2 or Mk2-to-Mk3 boundary introduces differences in the pump housing, connector type and bottle design that may prevent a straight swap. Always confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before buying across a generation boundary.

Both 2016 and 2018 Vivaros sit within the Mk2 generation (2014–2019), so these are strong candidates for a direct interchange on the front washer pump. Confirm the number of pump outlets with your breaker – some Mk2 Vivaros have a combined front-and-rear pump on a single bottle while others use separate motors – and match that to what your van has before purchasing.

Trim level does not affect washer motor fitment; the pump and bottle assembly is not upgraded or changed between trim grades such as Edition, Sportive, or Sport. The functional part is the same across trims within the same generation, so you can source from any trim without concern. Just be aware that cosmetic items around the washer bottle area, such as covers or clips, may differ slightly in appearance even if the motor itself is identical.

Whether a Vivaro has a rear washer motor depends on whether the van was fitted with a rear wash-wipe system, which was typically an option rather than standard fitment and is more commonly found on panel van conversions with a rear screen than on standard cargo vans. Check your own van first to confirm it actually has a rear wash-wipe before ordering a rear washer motor, as many Vivaros simply do not have this system at all. When sourcing, tell the breaker whether you need the front pump or the rear pump, as they are separate units.

The Mk1 Vivaro received a facelift in 2006 which brought some changes to front-end components, and the washer bottle and pump arrangement may differ between pre- and post-facelift examples. Within the pre-facelift or post-facelift group there is generally a better chance of interchange, but crossing the 2006 facelift point is worth querying directly with the breaker against your registration number to confirm the pump connector and outlet configuration match.

No – the washer motor is part of the windscreen wash system and is completely unrelated to engine type, whether your Vivaro is a 1.6, 2.0, or any other variant. You do not need to filter by engine when searching for this part. Focus instead on the generation of your van (Mk1, Mk2, or Mk3) and whether you need a front or rear pump, and supply your registration to the breaker so they can pull the right unit.
