VW Screenwash - Cheapest Source?

[paddyhasneeds]

Bit of a longshot but I've found the VAG screenwash that comes in those 1L grey bottles with the green top to be the best stuff out there.

Anyone know of anywhere significantly cheaper than a VW main dealers on several bottles once you factor in postage?

Thanks in advance.

GSF car parts always used to sell VW branded stuff - and they list a screenwash for later fan type washer nozzles, but it doesnt say if its the VW (Quantam?) stuff. £3.55/litre

5 x 1L bottle from local VW main dealer, £17.40 all-in.

Happy days (in a sad, screenwash kind of way)

5l for £17? I've used the stuff in the past but not convinced it's worth 3x the price of 'normal' stuff.

Pressumably it'll work in the wife's renault too?

It's only coded to work with VAG washer jets

Perhaps not, but I see it very simply which is that I know it works, it's a commodity and £17 worth will likely last 6 months so it's not worth fretting about vs. "Sodding frozen washers, why did I buy the cheap stuff?".

Smells lemon fresh as well :-)
