Rear Washer Fluid Reservoir ??
#11
You are amazing! Thanks for the help. Turned a hopeless all day project (I was going to start at the pump and work my way back) into a five minute fix!
Its the same reservoir.
Ther front jets are heated not the rear so if you are using washer fluid without antifreeze they can block in very cold conditions. Worse the delivery pipe has a connector under the passenger floor, dont keep pumping if its frozen or blocked... pop.
If it is a blocked jet you can reach it by spreading the wiper cover sides gently apart (tryone side at a time) and pop it off. The double jet head is just pressed in like a ball and socket/cup. It doesnt look like it would stand up to too many strip downs.
If you strip it down make sure you give a good squirt out to clear the line while its open.
Of courese all this assumes its the same/similar as Q7

ok I know this is old but thank you! I was worried I'd have to buy some Audi expensive part! I have the plastic piece right now dipped in WD40, hopefully it will clean up the nozzles
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
