MY04 headlight washers
Annoying 04 Headlamp Washers
MY04 cars come with the fantastic feature that means the headlamp washers come on
when you clean the windscreen, causing the passengers to get a soaking!
There is a bulletin that covers the change from 03-04 model year.
The symptom it corrects is when you activate the screen washers, the headlamp washers
also work, irrespective of whether the headlamps are on or not.
Only certain chassis ranges are afftected and the fix is customer complaint only and only
for the duration of the manufacturers waranty.
If the sympton is one you are experiencing and your car is still under warranty, ask your
dealer to look up bulletin HUK 521 dated 02.12.04.
This bulletin does not apply for 05 model year on as they are already modified.

I'm not sure what the solution was if 05+ don't do this, but I'd look into what might have changed. Have you tried the UK forum here to see if anyone has an answer? NA cars don't have the washers so many people won't have an answer.

I think I'd remove them, I kind of find them to be rather ugly in appearance, so if they don't work all that well they'd be gone from my car. You won't find too many answers here as North Americans didn't get the washers, you might get a better response from the European forums.
