Does the GTI come with washer level warning?
« on: July 05, 2010, 03:48:33 pm »
Per the header.

Noticed the little symbol when I start up, wondered if it actually works.  Without having to empty my water bottle to find out.

Secretly expecting disappointment with it to be an option with a winter pac or similar...

Wifes Pug seems to have more toys as standard, as she keeps telling me  :signLOL:
No Golf anymore. 
Enjoyed the last five years of ownership of Mk5 & 6 GTIs.
Plus an excellent forum for knowledge and new ways to deplete the bank account.
Thank You Everyone.

Mine does come on when there isn't much water left, however I don't know if I have the Winter Pack or not. What else does it have?

 :signLOL: True that Mark.

Just to note nc35, I've got the winter pack + Xenons and I've never had a low fluid level warning for the windscreen/washer fluid levels but I've topped it up plenty of times, just as I knew it was low - I.e. it has to get very low (few squirts left) before it tells you.

I think the winter pack includes heated seats and heated windscreen washers and headlight washers.

I think if you have xenon headlights then it has the low fluid warning as you get the bigger 5L washer reservoir instead of the 3L. Do you have xenons ILOVETUNA?
