Audi Q3: Windshield washer system

Checking and Filling
Fig. 153 Engine compartment: washer fluid reservoir cap

Observe the safety precautions.

The windshield washer reservoir contains the cleaning solution for the windshield/rear window and the headlight washer system fig. 153.

To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts of calcium. Always add window cleaner to the water.

When the outside temperatures are cold, an anti-freezing agent should be added to the water so that it does not freeze.

Messages

The following messages may appear depending on the vehicle equipment:

Please add washer fluid

Fill the washer fluid for the windshield washer system and the headlight washer system when the ignition is switched off.

Note

  • The concentration of anti-freezing agent must be adjusted to the vehicle operating conditions and the climate. A concentration that is too high can lead to vehicle damage.
  • Never add radiator anti-freeze or other additives to the washer fluid.
  • Do not use a glass cleaner that contains paint solvents, because this could damage the paint.
