Passat (B5) :: Windshield Washer Fluid Leaking
2003 Passat B5.5.
Every time I refill the bottle, the next morning I always find the fluid under driver's side bumper on my driveway.
Passat (B7) :: Windshield Wiper Fluid Not Shooting Out
My latest issue is not having wiper fluid shoot out of the dispenser units to the wipers. I think it may be frozen, but the weather has only gotten warmer since it worked last.
What's odd is that, even if frozen, I would think one side might work and the other would not, but neither works. I can hear the pump trying to squirt it out, but nothing.
I would rather fix it myself if I could. I have already taken the car to the dealership four times in the last month (steering rack 2X, catalytic converter, lower vent not working)....
I did top it off with fluid last night, but there was/is already plenty in there.
Passat (B6) :: Windshield Washer Fluid Is Leaking?
Recently the dash display indicated that I needed to add washer fluid. I was surprised that it would be low since I rarely use it and had not done so lately.
Yesterday I added water to the bottle and heard a trickling noise as I was doing so. To my surprise the water was leaking out below the car! The bottle remains empty.

I can hear the sprayer motor when I activate the toggle, but no spray from the squirters! (in the past I've encountered this on a honda, usually we'd just pull the squirter and soak it in a cup of solvent then pop it back on after shooting it black) but on the B6 it looks more complicated!!!

I have an '08 Lux wagon with rain sensing wipers and automatic headlights. When I spray the windshield with washer fluid, the wipers don't come on to wipe it away. This occurred today, and the wipers would not activate no matter what position I put the control stalk in. Then, after a few seconds, they came on and cleared the windshield. I have not noticed any other issues with the wipers. What might be going on here?
View 7 RepliesPassat (B5) :: 2003 - Windshield Washer Fluid Lines Freeze Up
It seems that whenever it drops below 20 degrees, my windshield washer fluid lines freeze up on my '03, even though the blue stuff is proported to go down to minus 20 (the jug in my garage is still nice and liquid, even at these colder temps).
Is this a fixable problem? Should I switch over to a different type of juice? I don't remember this happening as frequently in previous years as it has this year.

My last ride was as 1988 Ford pick up 275,000 miles ... the poor thing finally died ... but it gave good service right to the end. I replaced the Ford with a 2009 Prius and it's a great car. So far no problems just routine stuff until a day or so ago. The little yellow "Windshield air flow indicator light" can on. I checked my Bentley book and it doesn't tell me anything. So what I should be look for to fix the problem. Other than "Take it back to the dealer"
View 4 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Brake Fluid Is Low Indicator
So, according to my wife, there has been an indicator that the brake fluid is low, a couple of times, over the past several months.
Now, I know pretty much nothing about brake fluid, since it is usually simply changed at specified intervals. My mechanic might have not filled it up to level at the last service - there is no indication of leaks, especially since the warning is rather sporadic.
My wife went and got a bottle of "Prestone DOT 3 High Temperature Synthetic Brake Fluid." Will that do? Any precautions?
And yes, this is for my 2010 MT Golf TDI.
Prius C :: Windshield Wash Fluid Not Spraying
So I obviously checked the fluid levels and added plenty to make sure its not empty.. I don't know if there is some issue with a pump that needs to be warmed up first, or some ice buildup on the nozzles (obviously I didn't see any).
After driving for about 20 minutes it started spraying just fine. Although it doesn't seem to spray very well in the rear window. I'm wondering if it is just the cold temperatures (was around 0-5 at night) or if there is another issue.
Tiguan :: Low Windshield Washer Fluid Warning
Recently the low windshield washer warning light came up on my dash. I rarely use it so found it weird. As I thought it was pretty full already. The warning only show up when its around 4 degree Celsius and doesn't show up when its around 10 degree.
View 5 RepliesCamry :: 2009 XLE - Windshield Washer Fluid Leaking
I recently purchased a 2009 Camry XLE with 14,000 miles on it. So far so good other than the windshield/dash noise rattle when it is cold which I have searched on found a fix. However the other challenge I am having is the windshield washer fluid is leaking. It is a toyota certified car (warranty for 12 mos/ 12,000 miles) so I figured the 160 point inspection was completed expecting they would have topped off all fluids. I filled the washer fluid to where I could see it in the neck of the container. I walked back into my garage to put away the washer fluid, while walking back towards the car I could see something was leaking from under the car. It was leaking from a hole of the plastic directly under the car that covers everything up so you are unable to look up into the engine compartment. What may be causing this leak? I would suspect about 10 to 14 oz leaked.

I would assume that my sensor needs replacement. What it takes to access the sensor? Where is it exactly located before I start ripping apart everything.

View 6 RepliesSanta FE SM (2001-06) :: Where Is The Fuse For Windshield Wiper Fluid
I have a 2004 hyundai sante fe. None of my windshield washer fluid is spraying on my windows, front or back. I think the fuse to the windshield fluid might be broken so I opened up the fuse box but I can't find a fuse that says it's for the fluid.
There was one that said, I think, "Windshield" but it was a big gray little box it doesn't look like the rest of the fuses. I tried to pull on it but it wouldn't really budge and I didn't want to keep trying because I don't know what it is.
Accent RB (2012+) :: Windshield Fluid Sprayer Would Just Squirt
So I have a 2012 Accent, recently as the temperature dropped my windshield fluid wasn't spraying well and would just squirt (weak spray). Realized that I had summer fluid, so I emptied out the fluid and added new winter fluid the windshield pump would work fine when my car is warmed up and in the garage and even after I've left it out in the cold for a few while. Once I took the car out and started driving it started to squirt again rather than spraying. Is this an issue with the pump? or is there another problem?
