Windshield washer not so good

[Apex_ITS]

Minor issue just curious if anyone else noticed this.

Basically the windshield washers put a small amount right off the blade but just swipes it all to the sides instantly and doesn’t really clean. Have to do it a few times.

asked the dealer and they said it was normal.

First car with washers on the blades, is this just normal?

All my other cars had the nozzles on the hood and would soak the windshield.

I think this is normal, we just have to use a few more swipes but I believe it doesn’t spray as much every swipe compared to the traditional mounted nozzle setup.

It's different but fine. If you want your windshield to be actually clean you still need to wash the car, as always.

yeah I’m just used to my F-150 soaking the windshield.

Just wanted to make sure it was working right.

yeah it sucks for cleaning the windshield lol

That's why Acura gave these a tiny gas tank. Next fill up you'll be able to conveniently squeegee the windshield in no time!

I tried it once and was not happy either. I wanted some to get on the windshield on the down stroke. Maybe just need to keep it going longer.

I lightly polished all windows and applied aquapel glass treatment after the first wash. Never had problems with sprayers on the wipers. The only reason I miss regular sprayers is when I want to spray tailgaters.

RIP for the free windshield washer fluid.

I actually really like how they work. I don’t have to worry about wiper fluid on the hood, etc.

If you want a larger windshield washer tank swap it out for one from our Northern brothers. Canadian integras get an extra litter or more of capacity

Rain x and remove the tank and wipers. Hell the weight reduction and areo. Should add power too

Upgrade to the Canadian tank and go Meth Injection.

I tried the washer again today. It's reasonable for the driver's side, but the passenger wiper doesn't spray fluid on the down stroke, (neither does driver side so it's basically spraying on the way up and not quite doing a good enough job. I tried just letting it spray the whole time and it wouldn't do it, just on the upstroke. weird...
