FR Missing Washer Level Warning is there an alternative

[Carnivor]

I accept that my FR dosent tell me what my washer fluid is running low, but is there a way to make it so,

whats actually missing parts wise?, can a dealer modify? can i modify?

Oh. lol, ive been waiting for the warning to come on since i bought it. Im still on the same bottle of fluid since new and ive done nearly 9000 miles. I guess one day it will just stop working then with no warning. Best think about opening the bonnet!

 

[yell_oh]

It wouldn't be so bad if the bottle wasn't hidden in the wing! You can't even check how much you have left. I was caught out the other day on a wet motorway, had to get off at the next exit and visit halfords for some ready mixed!!

Does the stylance tell you when washer level is low??????

 

[Carnivor]

yes i think the stylance does, the fr only shows it if you have the big display dash ive read

 

[rob2005]

thats useful/interesting , well it is for stylance owners! Sorry FR owners !!

My FR doesn't tell me and I've got the big trip computer

My FR does indicate when the washer level is low, it's shown as a yellow/amber icon in the MFD, pretty much the same as the other VW/AUDI group cars.

Gazza - Is yours a 56 reg Leon? When was it built?

Any other options you have?

Winter pack for example?

Do you have the bluetooth option?

mines doens't but I've not got the MFD. So with this it may. There are a few omissions like this over the Mk1 Leon e.g. puddle lights, boot open light (again don't know if it has this with MFD).

My 56 Plate FR (with bluetooth) has the low warning at the top of the MFD.
It can be annoying as unlike our Alhambra where it comes on for a few seconds and then stays off until the next time you start the engine, on the Leon it flahes up every few seconds.

I believe if you have the large MFD (which you get with the bluetooth option) the washer warning shows at the top in yellow, where the fuel warning also shows. Not run my washer low yet so haven't seen it happen.

Yep, 56 plate, not too sure as to the production week when it was actually built..

Any other options you have?

Winter pack for example?

The car has B/tooth, winter pack, heated seats, convenience pack, Xenons, and Ipod connection.

Do you have the bluetooth option?

Yep, as above.

Sorry for the delay in posting a reply.....Too busy earning some £'s to pay for the long list of options

I'm fairly sure the low washer warning is only part of the winter pack now...
