Erm.. no question is a stupid question
If they CPO a car aren't they supposed to check fluids ?
Driving along today and I get a symbol and a beep, checked the manual it's the washer fluid. Checked the manual and all it says is "Using plain water is not adequate..."
Okay so what the hell am I supposed to put in there ?
Also why does one of the jets aim at the car next to me on the passenger side!! :-)
The stealership didn't spend too long on this CPO did they ?

And the Auto distance check symbol for the Xenons comes on alot.
Christ.

No, most companies don't do **** when they CPO a car....
I bought a CPO BMW and the brake fluid was never flushed even though the recommended interval was every 2 yrs...
The less a dealer does to CPO a car, the less money they have to pay out of pocket because a dealer will not be reimbursed by the manufacturer...

That 300 point inspection is total BULLSH*T
Go back to the stealer and talk to the service manager and ask him WTF? I actually had them "recertify" my meaning I actually watched them go thru all 300 items.

why didn't you ask us before you bought?
anyone of us whoud have told you that you need to do your own inspection. Its a used car.
If you read the Audi sight then you would have asked for the CPO check list and all the sign offs and then you would see what dealerships really do.

Uhhh...you could buy a jug of Washer fluid and fill the washer fluid tank.....
...then you can take a pin and aim your washer nozzles.
What's the big deal?
These are such non-issue items on a car.
I could see having a concern if you bought a CPO car with completely worn brake pads.....but to pissed over a low level of washer fluid?
Are you kidding?
