The Audi stuff I have got hold of is marked on the bottle as an all for one it has the Audi, VW and Skoda badges on the front stating it is for all 3 makes, hopefully it will be ok and not cause any blockages

Sharksworth, In the end it was just the actual jets themselves that were frozen and the cup of hot water did the trick, Shame I never tried this first as I would have saved £3.50 on fuses! I have picked up some screen wash from a local Audi dealership and this seems to have now prevented the freezing because it is good till -70c so if it freezes I dont think I will have to worry about driving anywhere. The Decosol that people have mentioned I have found you can get it from a well known motor shop that begins with a H (not sure if I can name stores) Again thanks for all the help and answers David

Thanks everyone for the answers and ChrisRs I tried it and poured hot water down the jets themselves this initially cleared it and I was able to wash the screen! hooray only for the screen to immediately freeze over! Doh. I have now got hold of some decent screen wash and will be putting this in as they just refroze on my drive home so will have to do the same tomorrow but the good news is the stuff I now have states -70 degrees so if it freezes I will be very worried!! Cheers again for all the help.

I use a ready mix from a well known motor store (not sure if I can name stores) It says it is the premium mix and for winter use.

I see what you mean but would this stop the pump motor making any noise? And if i try this and it works what solution would you recommend for the future? Cheers

I initially thought the same but I do a 30 mile trip to work along motorway so the car would have had plenty of time to defrost surely? I did try again when I got to work but they still are not working

Good afternoon all, I drive a Skoda fabia estate 1.9Tdi on a 58 plate. On my way to work today I went to wash my windscreen and was a bit disappointed they didn't work! The wiper blades themselves were going across no problem smearing all of the road dirt into the screen!!! The rear wiper blade again goes across no problem but the sprayer does not work. When I pull the stork to spray my windscreen I can hear no noise at all from the pump. I have looked in my manual and had a look at fuse number 26 which it states controls "Heatable windscreen washing nozzles, Windscreen cleaning system" and it all seemed ok, To be on the safe side I changed the fuse anyway but no joy. Am I missing something in the manual or would my worse thought ie new pump be the probable cause? Thanks for reading and thanks in advance for any help. Dave Smith
