Well this is annoying,
I looked under my car yesterday and found two little puddles of washer fluid. Did some searching and found it to be a very common problem on the A4 and A6 for the headlight washer gaskets to leak. One guy has been through three sets of them on his relatively new car. The strange thing is that they both started leaking at the same time. I can't help but wonder is some of the jarring to the bottom of the front bumber on parking blocks and such was enough to loosen up the gaskets even though the pumps are not near the bottom of the bumper.

Here are pics of the leaky nozzles...

For now I just plugged the main line and am running without them. I may keep it this way since the headlight washers blow all of my fluid anyways.

maybe a pressure spike? Dont know how, but just a thought.

I was always refilling and they stop working so just pulled plug on them so wouldn't blow my fuse.

That's why mine are all together disconected. Who needs those anyway?

fluid is fairly full. After it leaks enough, or I use some fluid, it stops leaking. Frankly, I may tell the dealer to shut them off rather than get them fixed. To me they are useless.

Agreed fellas. I'm leaving them unhooked. VVVVVVVVV

I think this is a German thing--it happened on my Mercedes also
