Damn this is gonna sound like such a newbie question hahahaha, but i have to know LOL

Ok so when i first got the X6 I noticed there were little square jobbies on the front bumper by the headlights (seen in pic below, but this is not actually mine but the same)



So i didnt like them there cos thought they are blankouts cos thats where the headlight washers would usually be

Anyways, driving one day im using the wipers etc and when i get home i see there are water marks on the headlights but cant see any washers so can this be?

So I say to wife she must get in the car and use the wipers and sprayers cos im sure these things must pop out and spray (said it in my most man techno know it all voice) to which my wife replied "yeah whatever" LOL

So she gets in and does it and low and behold, wiat for it, wait, fook all happens and nothing pops out so now i feel like a real twat :cry:

Anyways, i get an email this morning from my wife (im in Ghana at the mo) with the following pic attached and she says there must be headlight washers on this damn car (as you can see from the pic below), and this is my actual car :=):



So i went onto youtube and looked at headlight washers for BMW and low and behold i found this (albeit from an E90)




So now im all fooked up in the head cos is this actually something that happens on my car? Do they actually pop out like transformer deceptercons and wash my headlights?

If so, this is sooooo cool :biglol:

Sorry its such a noobie type question but i seriously didnt know this and need clarification to put me out of my misery :=):

Oh and how do you actually get them to work? Do you need to be moving or is there something you should be doing that im not cos like i said earlier, i did try with my wife and nothing hapopened and then i looked like a twat and a technophobe :roflol:

:ty:

Hey Darren...

Easy... when you lights are switched on and you use your window wipers mine automatically spray the lights too... it's the funniest thing to see pop out of your car :)

On the E60, they pop out for a squirt on every 10th cycle of the wipers or something like that.

Ok, just got the update on the E46: One squirt per 3 cycles of the wipers and apparently only if the lights is on. Or if you pull on the stalk and spray long enough it should also pop out.
