I can not seem to find where the hell the washer pump is located.

I get no spray out onto my windshield and I hear nothing moving.

This topic has been covered by several posts ... searching the forum can be time consuming but could save you a ton of money ...

Of course if money is no object your BMW dealer will probably make house calls

You know, I never had time to look into this...I have the same problem. Mine was perfectly find and then I disconnected the sprayers and took them off my hood to polish it and since then it doesn't want to spray. That was about 6 months ago and i STILL havent looked at it. I'll put it on the list of things to do tomorrow.

You will find it located inside the driver side forward wheel well. You need to remove the screws on the front side of the line and peel it back. You should see it.

Gotcha. So remove drivers side front wheels and pull back wheel well lining? Or access inside engine bay front driverside?

Windshield washer fluid tank is front and centre in the pic. Mine is full of yellow winter Rain-X. The pump is located on the side of the tank facing the tire. The inner wheel well was removed in the pic.

Exactly, remove wheel, and then the front portion of the liner and you will see it.
