Posted this in Tech last night but no-one ever seems to go there! Any ideas?
Not terribly technical - screenwash....
OK so I have just collected my new A3, the screenwash bottle is full of clear liquid smelling just like the VW/SEAT/Skoda/Audi blue stuff p/no. G 052 164 A2 (~£2.75 per litre inc. VAT at the VW stealer). Of which I have 5 or 6 litres in the garage.......
Coincidentally my mother-in-law collared me this evening (serves me for showing off the new toy...). She has been to local Audi (on her way home, VW miles away) and bought Audi p/no. 00A 096 319 006 £2.50 per half litre for her Polo
The blue stuff was originally put into my Passat years ago by W stealer after tipping out 5L of the old (perfectly fine) Quantum old model stuff
on grounds that 'we have to use this for the fan jets' - the Audi stuff says it's for fan jets...
So question is are they the same / miscible / compatible? My cynical side says the former is multi language and multi brand (and cheaper!!), the latter appears to be Audi UK
Dilution / temperature protection within a couple of degrees of frost each ratio
No prob I can use hers but can I use the multi stuff??? I can't see it's likely to be way different
No hurry as we both have full wash bottles (in fact if I can't use the blue stuff she may have a lifetime supply)
Thanks anyone
