Default Calgon liquid works perfectly on a D2 A8L

Symptoms for me: no washer fluid being dispensed in the direction of my headlights although I could hear the headlight washer jet pump operating.

Emptied the reservoir first by repeatedly operating the wipers with the headlights on, of course. Refilled with approximately half a bottle of Calgon liquid (300ml-400ml), and about 1 litre of water as the liquid was quite thick and just glooped into the filler hole.

It didn't work at first or for the next couple of days for that matter. Tried it later in the week and lo and behold, my washer jets for the headlights were now working. I'm sooooo pleased with this quick fix as I didn't really fancy having to investigate further.
