How to spray windshield washer fluid on Volkswagen Lavida?
2 Answers
To spray the windshield washer fluid on the Volkswagen Lavida, simply turn the ignition switch to the ON position and slightly lift the wiper control lever on the right side of the steering wheel. While driving, it is important to maintain clear visibility through all windows. Regularly cleaning the wiper blades and all windows is a good driving habit. For wiper maintenance, the blades should be replaced once or twice a year. Avoid dry wiping the windshield with the wiper blades to prevent rubber deterioration, wear, and window fuzzing, which can affect performance. The Lavida comes in both sedan and hatchback versions. The sedan version has dimensions of 4670 mm in length, 1806 mm in width, and 1474 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688 mm. The hatchback version measures 4541 mm in length, 1806 mm in width, and 1488 mm in height, also with a wheelbase of 2688 mm.
Owners of the Volkswagen Lavida know that spraying windshield washer fluid is quite simple. My usual driving habit is to locate the control lever on the right side of the steering wheel and gently pull it toward myself. At this point, the washer fluid sprays out, and the wipers simultaneously activate to clean the windshield. This instantly improves visibility during rain or when there's dust. The key is to fill the washer fluid reservoir—open the engine hood, find the container with a blue cap marked with a windshield icon, unscrew it, and pour in the dedicated washer fluid. Avoid using tap water as a substitute, as it can breed bacteria or freeze the nozzles in winter. I recommend checking the fluid level every few weeks and topping it up to prevent it from running empty. If the fluid doesn’t spray, first check if the level is low or if the nozzle is clogged; a fine needle can be used to gently unclog it. The entire process is designed to be convenient, even for beginners, with the main goal being to maintain cleanliness and safe driving.
