Installing Fan washers

[gartner]

Doubt it, do VAG offer a warm air recirculation feature after the engine is turned off? My Beemer has this, you can press a button on the heater controls and it will keep the blowers on and continue to circulate the warm water in the heater matrix after the ignition is turned off so the cabin continues to get warm air for 10-15 minutes after leaving it, ideal when you're only stopping for a short time before jumping back in.

Yes, I'm aware about this function in E39, had two of them(540i manual and 528iA). "REST" function right?

It's strange because Seat Owner's Book doesn't list this option.

Just changed mine today. So simple to change over and no need for any tools. Has to be the easiest mod I have ever done. The fan washers work so much better!

I collected my car on Saturday, sprayed my windscreen wash today and it was fan already. Is that because it's now standard, or do I just have a good dealer?!

A good dealer. I picked my car a month ago, three line spays are in. Alerady bought this sprays washers, waiting for delivery.

I doubt the dealer swapped these, must have been there from factory. I'll check mine when it arrives!

Which dealer? I know some of the dealers know of the upgrade.

Mine doesn't have fan washers from the factory, might have to do this!!

A family run dealer in Croyde, North Devon. I used to use this SEAT only dealer to service my Fabia vRS, always did a good job and went the extra mile.

Picked our Cupra up today, no fan washers so guess what's on order ?

Picked mine up Friday standard 3 jets so yours must be the odd one

Yep fancy a set as well, can we assume if the car has no winter pack then the washers aren't heated, or best of removing and checking first before ordering new ones?

I didn't have winter pack but had heated jets so best to check 1st!

Being a bit of a noob here but how do I check? I'm assuming just checking for a wiring loom that connects not just a washer pipe? I don't have the winter pack, but I will still check! If they are heated is there a heated fan option available? And where's best to buy them? Sorry for all the questions Thanks!

Thanks Chris, reckon I'll check just in case!

Tommy, somewhere In This thread someone has posted a pic of both types, like you say one has a loom and plug going in and the other doesn't. The heated jet is quite a bit chunkier too.

On my way to the dealership today I used my washers for the first time and I already have the heated fan washers installed one less thing to do on my to-do list

Looks like a great mod... I was disopointed when I took delivery of my new seat leon 14 plate and it had the pistol spray jets....

Will look into this mod very soon

Fitted today, piece of pi55 and so much better.
