All this talk about poor build quality/reliability--but Audi sure does make a mean windshield fluid!

Default The older stuff smelt better though....
The newer stuff has a bad smell compared to the old stuff. Someone said a while back they wished they could import it since like every long time audi owner would want it.

Default Sounds like a great idea. Better then anything else I used.
And it sure does wake you up in the morning. :-D

Default Be careful - you can't get any more once it's gone...
Audi's factory fill washer fluid is wonderful, but unfortunately, due to whining about the aroma by pathetic Americans, it's no longer imported by AoA.

Or in other words when it's time for a refill all your dealer has available is the generic "blue stuff"...

I find that the RainX brand isn't so bad.

Default Still quite a bit in Audi Warehouses
Assuming that you are referring to the mixable 1 liter ZVW-177-904 Stuff.

.... It is listed as discontinued on the parts screen however.

I haven't tried it, but what about mixing 303 cleaner with the "generic blue stuff"?
