How to Add Windshield Washer Fluid to a Volkswagen Passat?

[HannahMarie]

Here are the 4 steps to add windshield washer fluid to a Volkswagen Passat: 1. Use the wiper control knob to first drain the existing washer fluid. 2. After spraying out all the old washer fluid, add a small amount of newly prepared washer fluid to the washer fluid reservoir. 3. Turn on the wiper switch again to clean out the remaining old washer fluid solution. 4. When no more fluid sprays from the nozzles, add approximately 4L of washer fluid, then securely close the cap to complete the process. Additional Information: 1. Never add coolant antifreeze or similar additives to the windshield washer fluid. This can create an oily film on the windshield, severely impairing visibility and increasing the risk of accidents! 2. If the windshield wipers are left on when the ignition is turned off, they will resume operation in the same setting when the ignition is turned back on. If there is frost, snow, or other obstructions on the windshield or rear window, this may damage the wipers or wiper motor. 3. If the system fails to spray fluid, first check if the washer fluid level is too low, then inspect whether the washer pump is faulty.
