Washer Jets Normal to Fan and Washer Fluid Level Warning

Post by Stormtrooper1967 »

Hi all
Did a quick search but didn't bring my question up.

Just bought my daughter a 2013 1.2TDI 5 Door Match Edition. Just going over a few things to replace/repair so its top notch.

Drove it back 100 miles to home and noticed the washer jets are just two single streams which uses loads of fluid. Is it possible to swop them for fan type washer jets? If so does anyone have a part no - tried looking on the parts catalogue but could only find the standard ones so I'm guessing I have to get them from another model?

Also quite surprised that it doesn't have a low washer fluid warning light - is that right?

Thanks in advance.

Remember the front washer jet assembly on VWs well at least the Polo and some others, is different to those fitted to Audis and SEATs, so far I have not noticed a problem with the jets on my wife's August 2015 Polo 1.2TSI 110PS SEL.

Normally for VW Polo being sold into UK there is no fluid level warning fitted, only cars with headlight washers get that fitted as standard.
