Headlight cleaning system of the VW Eos 2007 does not work: Tips and mechanic recommendations wanted

Headlight cleaning system without function

Hey guys, I have a problem with my 2007 VW Eos (gasoline engine, 112,000 km on the clock). The headlight cleaning system no longer makes a sound. It could probably be due to a low wiper fluid level. Has anyone here had similar experiences and can recommend a good mechanic? Last time was unfortunately a disaster. Thanks in advance!

Hey, I also had a similar experience with my 2010 VW Scirocco. My windshield washer system was out of order. It turned out to be a problem with the windshield washer nozzles and not the wiper water level. So I had to have them replaced, and my mechanic did a neat job. It was definitely a more serious problem than it seemed at first glance. Think that might be your problem too. Should definitely be checked by a professional.

Hey, your experience sounds really similar to my problem. Do you remember how expensive it was to have your windshield washer nozzles replaced? And has anything reappeared since then? I'm already dreading my next visit to the garage. Thanks for the tip!

Hello, Well, fortunately the problem with the wiper fluid level hasn't been a problem since I've been to the mechanic. So at least that's been fixed, so don't worry about it. The replacement to fix the communication error between the control units was quite something, I tell you! It wasn't cheap, it cost me €955. But at least the problem is gone now and I don't have to worry about it any more. I hope this helps you and you don't have too much stress with your Eos. Let me know how it goes!

Hey, that's a real relief to hear. I'm definitely worried about the wiper fluid now. The cost does sound pretty steep for replacing the control units. I'll have it checked by the mechanic and see what they say. I hope everything goes smoothly. Thanks for the help and recommendations!
