So what do they sell to the owners of previous Audi models that do have washer jets. Sorry, you car is obsolete now sir.

On cars with the winter pack, low washer fluid alarm comes on when down to 500ml, so 5l exactly to fill back up.

Yep, mine is still on after a bottle concentrated and then a bottle of water. will put another bottle of water in today, so it'll be a 1:2 concentration I added. Good job I'm not so crazy over MPG. An extra bottle of coke weight in the car.. Oh noes!

You can pick up some of the premix stuff and the concentrated stuff in packs of 10 on ebay, but it's more expensive due to shipping
