Headlight washers
My headlight washers only work once after the headlights have been switched on. If I subsequently use the windscreen washers, the headlight washers wont work until I switch the headlight off/on again.
Anybody else seen this or know what it might be..?
Not a major issue and will raise it when I take it to the dealers, but would be useful to know if it's something simple.
cheers

The headlamp washers only activate when the headlights are on, and after every third (or possibly fourth) wash after the initial spray. Have you tried pressing the washer button a few times?IE - 05 D3 TDV6 HSE - Zambezi Silver
