No not that.........when I shut the car down my windshield wiper spray tips drip for about 5 minutes. This started about a month ago. What's up with that, anyone had this before?
Seems like that tank is getting pressurized.

thanks

Is the vent hole for the washer tank plugged which is causing the tank to pressurize by the engine heat?
 
It'll quit dripping when it freezes....
I'm going to check this when I have car out next.
I've not noticed this to date.

The only thing I can remotely think of is the motor grounding out or not grounding and getting a charge somewhere?
 
I don't know if I have in fact ever used the washer function. I put Rain-X on the windows so they stay pretty clean. I have said many times I actually like driving the car in the rain. It just feels so comfortable.

I am afraid to even try the washers now because who in reality wants a dripping tip.:D
 
My tips only drip after the engine is shut down, that's the weird part. I'm just going to drain the tank and stay home on snowy days.;)

Figured it out guy's. I purchased a set of polished billet fluid caps over the winter and it appears that the washer cap seals so well that the tank wasn't breathing like Riley suggested. I drilled a 1/16 hole in the cap and all is well again. I'm an idiot!!
