I used my screen washers this evening on the way home, I noticed spray from the light washer but when I got home car looked like this. Is this normal or is the spray to strong, it is only on the drivers side.

I never use the windscreen washers when the lights are on or u'll plaster the whole car in washer fluid. Awful on a clean car if i new which fuse worked the headlight washer I'd take it out. It's usually all over the roof ad well.

Thanks BigMac, So it is normal then. First and last time I'll use washer when lights are on.

At least there's a workaround for the RCZ by switching the lights off. My current car does this all the time :roll:

Why does having the lights on make a difference?

The Peugeot engineers figured it would make sense to only clean the lights when they are actually used.
The Audi engineers decided to do it every 5th time you use the washer, with a VERY loose definition of 5 :eusa-think:

It's a shame. I don't see the point in having these washers at all. Never needed them on any car.

This mess on your car is down to the overly strong mixture of the windscreen wash in your NEW rcz,it being spring/summer :wtf: I would dilute it to a minimum,and of course strenghten the mixture come the winter,My ST does'nt leave a mess and its the same as the pugs, it only activate when dipped beam headlamps are chosen.

I think its actually to do with the lights over heating and melting things. The lights being covered in ? and stopping the heat dispersing would be a big problem for HIDs,

Only reason why washers are mandatory is for dirt and bugs, that will desort the light and blind other traffic. Same reason in some EU country's (donno about UK tbh..) its mandatory for xenons to have the auto adjust function, these lights are to bright to have wrongly adjusted during heavy loading.
Nothing to do with heating. lights are tested during manufacturing while being covert in dirt totally and ( obviously) are not allowed to overheat then.
