Screen Wash Level

[BioHzrd]

Now add on the import taxes . Sadly buying car parts from EU countries got a lot more expensive since a year or so ago.

To be fair, it was a couple of years since I bought VW ones for the Caravelle.

I've bought from them last month no import taxes at all.

£130 at dealer price for £87 delivered took just under a week to arrive too.

I’ve asked the same question after running out without any warnings maybe a software issue . Happened twice now although last time I knew because headlamp wash stops first as I’m guessing the pump is a little higher

[RichR]

I had to drive about 30 miles with it going ‘bing’ and popping up the message a couple of days ago until I stopped at a motorway service station and had to go into the petrol station to buy some more!

I wonder why it works for some cars and not others?

[C2atb]

I’ve had more front assist warnings than anything else ! But running out of wash during the salty motorway trips was bad but at least now I can tell from sound when running low

[BioHzrd]

I think mines is faulty, got to tr pont where nothing was coming out the nozzles yet no warning light on dash board.

Is there a delay with everyone's else's system when thecdtalk is pulled before fluid hits thexscreen also ?

[RichR]

Yes, there’s a bit of a delay. I assume there aren’t any one way valves in the pipes like on some other cars. I have to hold it for a second or two before anything comes out.

[orrery]

Maybe an air leak or a faulty non-return valve, so the fluid drains back into the bottle?

[RichR]

With mine, if the headlights are on it has to fill and push the headlight nets out before it does the windscreen. But I don’t thing BioHzrd has headlight washers on his.

Just to confirm / reassure, I also have a delay of perhaps almost a second before screen wash emerges from the nozzles. No headlight washing system on my one.

I did get the ‘screen wash empty’ warning a few weeks ago - so this appeared to work as expected.

Just to confirm / reassure, I also have a delay of perhaps almost a second before screen wash emerges from the nozzles.

That's how it should be. That allows you to do a short pull on the stalk and do a wipe, without the wash.

Nissan has the opposite: a short pull gives a wash with no wipe, which is stupid.
