You can´t blame the car.
So you keep it in the freezer?

Up here we typically refer to fluids dependent on teperature to perform, as to "how cold they are". I´m sure you understand.

Let me know if you want me to make a propper joke, just state the suitable forum.

Down here we call it "banter". Clearly you don't understand.

I consider this a serious forum. If you would like to pass yourself as standup artists, please go elsewhere. Most of us are here for the cars, not for your hilarious waste of time.

Are you a moderator? If not your rudeness will be ignored. That's what we do with posts we don't like, ignore them. I suggest you do the same. If you want to banish someone for having a sense of humour, report them to the mods and ask to have them banned. Otherwise get over yourself.

Default Washer nozzles not heated

I have the winter pack on my XC60 and so 'should' have the heated washer nozzles. I'm currently in Europe where the temperature has been minus 2 but I haven't seen the ice melt around or on the nozzles suggesting that they are not working.

Other than the fuse is there another check I can make?
