The windscreen washers on our S40 have stopped working. On examination,
I find that the T-piece that splits the water between the two outlets
has a red part with a hole in - and the water's just squirting out under
the bonnet. Has some kind of mount come loose, and why on Earth does the
T-piece have a hole in it?

The t fitting is junk. The red section is a check valve that keeps washer
solvent in the lines going to the washer jets. Replace the T fitting with
the later version filter T fitting available from Volvo.
