Guten Tag,
I'm a delighted (so far!) new 2010 Golf TDI owner (Blue Graphite 4-dr., manual trans, sunroof, Xenon, cold weather pkg., Dynaudio, Bluetooth) and new to this (or any other) excellent forum, so I hope I'm not screwing up the protocol. I have read a number of other questions and may have some advice re: vehicle purchase issues and snow tires (we live in the lake effect snow belt of central NY), but I will reply to those matters elsewhere. I do have one question (for now!) related to the heated windshield washer nozzles: nowhere in the incredibly long and very German (i.e., thorough) owner's manual can I find anything about how they operate. Is there an on/off switch somewhere, or do they somehow sense cold weather and turn on automatically when needed, or what? Is the rear washer also heated? Or did I miss something on page 2,122 of the manual? My next project is to figure out the audio system and also hook up the cell phone I never use. I come from a generation where 8-track stereos were a big deal and the new-car learning curve for this old geezer is getting a bit steep. BTW, my first car was a red '65 Beetle, also had a '72 Karmann-Ghia, but this is the first VW since. This one actually has heat!
Thanx, and auf wiedersehen for now!
