    Dealers should carry it in stock.

    While on the subject.......I was fiddling around with VCDS last week. I found an option that I was not sure what it does. It was called "front wiper sweep" or something like that. Not sure what it did, so I activated it.
    I turned my wipers on, but did not notice any difference...........I left is activated.
    Then the next day I used my windscreen washers. After the wipers have finished their 3 wipes, the wipers do a cleanup wipe to clean the dribbles 3 seconds after the 3 wipes have finished.

    Not sure if Multivans have this activated from the factory, but the Transporters don't.

    Yes, there are few things you can activate with VCDS. You can also adapt your door locks to locks on take off.

    For long time now I'm using Sonax windscreen additive and am very happy with it. (Available from Repco)

    I only use about a cap full when I top up as the scent while nice is very strong.

    I ended up grabbing a 5L fuel container so I can mix up the recommended concentration easily and more importantly I can keep both cars topped up at all time rather than waiting for it to run empty before refilling. Personally I like the smell, but maybe that's just the alco in me

    Just for some background info, wholesale IPA 100% is well under $2.00/Lt, make a 70% ipa, 0.5% surfactant or neutral detergent blend and save even more....

    Can you say that in terms that a Year 7 science class would understand?
