X6 headlight washers
I have just had both my headlight washers replaced on a 2008 X6 as they blew out during a cold weather period in GB. They were replaced under warranty, however, no mod has been done and in my opinion, there is a design fault. I have a 50/50 fluid mix and use BMW washer fluid. Moisture is freezing on the external surface of the front bumper and obstructing the covers, pressure builds up and both covers and nozzles disappear.
I think BMW should mod, this is also an issue on 3 and 5 series vehicles. Anyone else had this problem? |

I had that issue a few weeks ago driving fast in rain. I just saw a flash and when i got home there was a hole where the headlight washer used to be. When I went to the dealership, they told me I was not the first. It is a design issue. No part should fly off in rain at what ever speed (i was going pretty quickly ). It took 3 weeks to order, paint and replace. I don't think it will be the last time either.
