Topped up my windscreen washer fluid yesterday only to see most of it on the drive. At this point i was thinking here we go its gonna be expensive. I removed the right hand engine bay cover in order to get a decent look at the reservoir tank and I could see the fluid level sitting about a...
Hi, does anyone know how big the washer fluid reservoir is? I topped mine up today but I hardly ever use my washers anyway, so thought it wouldn't need much but I ended up putting nearly a whole one litre bottle in and it still didn't come to the top!
It's so annoying that you can't even see...
Can someone tell me how to remove the Windshield WasherReservoir? I took off the bolt that is shared with the power steering fluid, but there is another one that I can't find. I need to take it out to gain access to the ABS controller.
Thanks!
Hi,
In the A6 C8 manual it states that windscreen washerreservoir capacity is approx 6 litres. So this morning I got the warning light and topped up the reservoir. But it only took 4.5 litres!!! So either the warning light comes on waaaay too early or the manual is wrong. Next time I will wait...
The water in my washerreservoir is absolutely foul. It fills the car with the stench of rotten eggs when I wash the screen. It would be nice to drain the water out completely and wash it out with something but it looks as if that is easier said than done. A while ago I tried just poking the...
Does the rear wiper have a separate reservoir or does it use the main one because i got no fluid coming out the rear wiper when i press the stalk and the main reservoir is full and the pump is working because i can hear it.

Afternoon,
I feel a bit daft making this thread....
My rear washer jet isn't working, so first thing would be to check the fluid - but I can't remember where the rear reservoir is :meeting:
I'm sure I saw it the other day and its vanished. Help!! Where the ****** hell is it :whistle2:
Also...
Just a quickie peeps :)
Does a B5 Avant have a seperate reservoir for the rear?
I can hear pumps working, but nothing has ever come out the back since I've owned it. Just wondered before I sart trying to unblock things :D
Hi Peeps.
Had my new A3 since the end of October. Today, for the first time, the Top-Up windscreen washer alarm came on - how annoying does that get !
Anyway, the problem I've got is when I try and top up the windscreen washer fluid I can only get a small amount in it before it overflows. I've...
My A3 S-Line is one of the most expensive cars Iv'e bought yet does NOT have a warning light when the washer fluid reservoir gets low.
The vast majority of my previous cars had this feature and its a real pain to run out of washer fluid with no warning during a motorway journey.
My local...
Anyone know where I can get a black washer fluid reservoir cap from?
Only place I can find is ECS tuning in the US who want $39.70 postage for a $14.95 item, which IMO is taking the p**s!

How do I acces the drain plug on the windscreen washerreservoir? Is it a case of removing the front left wheel and undoing the wheel arch panels? she's a 99 a4 1.8t sport.
Cheers
I fitted my Passat fan-jet nozzles Monday afternoon, and expended lots of water in the course of setting the alignment correctly. Unfortunately, I forgot to top the reservoir up. I used the car very early this morning for the first time since Monday, and on the way to work the low water level...
Does anyone know whether the 5.3 litre screen wash reservoir (S3 version with headlight washer pump) will fit in place of the standard 3 litre one on an A3? Firstly will it physically fit existing mounting holes etc, and secondly what about pipes/wiring for the windscreen/tailgate pump?
Any info...
On my 2011 A4 Avant the front and rear windscreen spray nozzles constantly block up so I think I need to clean the reservoir out and flush the system. How do I access the drain? Is it behind the liner on the passenger side wheel arch? Or is removing the bottle itself a big job?
Can I put the...
Hi All,
I've tried searching google and the forums and cannot for the life of me find out where i can buy a 5.5l washer tank for my screen. Car has headlamp washers if that makes any difference. Mine is useless and can only hold the fluid in for a week before its all leaked out.

Hi guys
My rear window washer has stopped working. It still wipes but doesn't wash. The reservoir is full and has been de-frosted as I have been using the front washers, but the rear just does not squirt.
I assume its a pipe that has become frozen and then either burst or come away from a...
My rear washer has stopped working on my A3 2.0 tdi S Line Sportback (8V) I can hear the motor working and the reservoir is full, the rear wiper is working.
I recently have had a front and rear dash cams fitted by a professional and am wondering if he needed to disturb the pipes etc. The rear...
Yet again when the car went in for a service I made sure that the reservoir was brimmed & yet again got charged for washer fluid.
When I queried it, the dealer said that as part of the service they drain the reservoir and refill it to make sure the concentration is right.
Previously I just...
