Default WASHER FLUID LEAKING?

Anyone know what the most common cause for all of the washer fluid comming out is? I know that the fluid bottles are prone to cracking. Anyone know how to change it?

Thanks a lot!
Shawn

BTDT. Check the pumps too (headlight and windshield washers use separate pumps.)

Default There is a nice faq in the tech section

The faq refers to the windshield washer pump but also shows the headlight washer pump. I had both of mine go bad and wound up buying the aftermarket upgrades.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/misc28.shtml">Washer pump faq</a></li></ul>
