Where to add windshield washer fluid for Audi A5?
2 Answers
Audi A5's windshield washer fluid is added to the independent washer fluid reservoir in the engine compartment, with a unified washer fluid symbol on the cap. The Audi A5 dashboard has a washer fluid level indicator light that will start flashing when the fluid is running low during driving. The Audi A5 is positioned as a premium two-door coupe, with body dimensions of 4712mm in length, 1854mm in width, and 1391mm in height. The Audi A5 features a new high-tech four-cylinder engine - a 1.8-liter TFSI engine with 125 kW (170 horsepower) output, combining turbocharging technology and direct fuel injection for powerful performance.
The windshield washer fluid refill location for the Audi A5 is under the hood. As a regular driver of this model, I needed to familiarize myself with the process during my first operation. Open the hood release lever located below the steering wheel in the cabin, then exit the vehicle and lift the engine hood. Near the front close to the windshield, there's a blue plastic cap with a spray icon – that's the opening to the washer fluid reservoir. Simply unscrew the cap and pour in dedicated windshield washer fluid. Using specialized cleaning fluid is better than tap water to avoid nozzle clogging or water scale residue. In winter, remember to use antifreeze-type fluid to prevent freezing and ensure usability. The position is ergonomically designed for easy access without needing to crawl under the car. It's recommended to check the fluid level monthly, especially before long trips. If the level is low, the dashboard will illuminate a warning light. Developing a habit of regular top-ups enhances wiper cleaning performance, ensuring clear visibility and driving safety.
