Brilliant ... no time wasted, straight to the point, clear as day. I've never really looked closely at the mechanism (mine actually work very well and my wipers are streak free even though this is the second winter on same blades).
Had no idea, thank you!
Great! Thank you... My washer direction on the left hand side, does not "reach" the bottom part of the windscreen... I will try this out during the weekend😊
Brilliant
We were only yesterday driving along, in our new 3, cleaning the windscreen, thinking what is going on with that squirt.
Great channel.
More please
Thanks. More coming very soon!
Thank you for the interesting info.
Cheers mate! Im sure that my drivers side only has one nozzle working. thats why it builds up crap on winter roads. THANKS! booking service now
same here...how did they fix it? Driver side bottom one not spraying
Thanks.
Cool, thanks for the video
Very interesting, thank you
thanks for the video 👍🏻
Good Video!
The annoying part of washing the windscreen is the water that pours over the drivers window. Don’t leave your window open if you are going to wash the windscreen.
Yes! I found that out the hard way. Several times because I forget :D
@@misujerr ouch. Lol
In Mazda 6 too...
@@volkhen0 lol. Not good.
@@SirHackaL0t. Teslas is not good at all. Volvo version is superior to Tesla! Two nozzle units on each arm, four nozzles on each unit so eight nozzles on each arm.
Excellent and easy to understand video - but when will the long version that was announced at 1:30 come out?
I hardly get any fluid on the drivers side. Thought it was just poor design but maybe a blockage. Will have to check.
Great video. The washer hose drags across my M3 glass making a loud squeak going up and down. Any fix for that?
If the hose is dragging across the screen it can't be properly routed. We've seen a few Model 3s with the washer hoses loose or even disconnected where each hose connects to the 'T' piece under the hood. Follow each hose back and check to see if they're all secured properly would be my advice and thanks for watching!
Drivers side on mine puts out a lot less than the passenger, this video makes me think the two adjustable nozzles are blocked in some way. Used to use a bike pump to clear on older cars, wonder if you have ideas?
One thing to check if you haven't already - the tubes feeding water to the wipers can easily come off the Y piece feeding them, so remove the plastic cover below the wipers and follow the tube to where it goes behind the plastic trim under the winsdscreen and make sure it is connected. If it is and there is a spray from the misting nozzle, then yes I think your jets are blocked and you could unblock them with a very fine needle. I also tend to use pure, dionised water in my washer bottle as I live in a very hard water area and I think over time deposits and scale can build up which could block the nozzles.
@@TeslaGurus will paperclip works instead if needle
@@gobear2002 The wire most paper clips are made from is too thick. A needle, safety pin or a really tiny jeweller's screwdriver would be OK. Or you can buy a tool designed for the job online for a few £s.
@@TeslaGurus thank you for this! Mine is doing the exact same - drivers side. I will check out the tubing and then try a needle to see if they are blocked
It would be nice if you were to do a video on wiper blade replacement. It's hard to source a wiper that fits Tesla 3. There's lots of videos on this from USA but not many from UK. Apparently the wipers are not compatible for UK model. How strange!!
How to clean my windows with my washer fluid tesla
@Tesla Gurus I see my windshield has some haze on certain spots when I am driving at night and it is raining when I use my wipers. I am not sure how to get rid of the haze!
Give the glass and wiper blades a really good clean! There are lots of videos on YT from detailers showing how to deep clean auto glass.
Haha, very interesting😀
Is there a way to reset the windshield wiper fluid notification
Fill up the fluid reservoir!
Seems pretty inefficient. The side sprayers just... spray away, not hitting where it is needed.
On our Volvo we have several nozzles on each arm (eight, on each arm, divided into two nozzles units!) so it wastes like almost ZERO fluid (some drops will spill out in the outer end as i have them adjusted now since we have a lot of crap on the roads here, better to have too much on the window than to little).
All been done before. Long ago.
What a useless comment.
Its just a cheaper Mercedes copy if you ask me: th-cam.com/video/07AZHkkLR0k/w-d-xo.html
