Default No headlight washer in SQ5 - Canada

I just got back from my dealership concerned that my headlight washers were not working but was told that the SQ5s don't actually have headlight washers. The cut outs and little squares are there but apparently nothing under them. Is that true? Can anyone else confirm? It might be a 'feautre' in Canada only the place driving on the highway guarantees dirt on your headlights from cars in front.

Spec wise I only didn't get the Adaptive Cruise control, had the car fora good 5 months now.

Thanks!

Hecaton, it has been determined that headlight washers are not applied to any North American 2018 Q5 or SQ5. We only get the covers with nothing underneath them.
Check out this recent thread on the topic: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/q5-...shers-2936576/

I'm guessing however that RoW (rest of world) 2018 Q5s & SQ5s get headlight washers.

I'm getting tired of the North American market getting shafted. My 2010 A4 had these... but the 2017 SQ5 doesn't? Give me a break.

This is ridiculous. I did not even think to ask, my 2013 had them why would I think otherwise.

i know my 2014 had it what happened ? Seriously Audi wtf happened? No Qi charger, no google maps, no wifi in car, no option for flat bottom steeringwheel and now no headlight washers .. also for fun let me throw in the fake exhaust tips.
i mean isnt it more work to remove some of these features??
