Hi guys,
Just picked up my C350 4matic yesterday. I had read a post about checking the tire pressure (although I forgot to do that), but also wondered what else I should be checking.
The reason I ask is that I was on the highway yesterday and the windshield looked dirty. I thought I would spray some of the windshield washer fluid on it and clean it. However, as I pressed in the lever as stated in the manual, nothing came out. Do they not check this in their PDI? Or is it just not included? Or did I just do it wrong? I'm not sure how I could screw it up as it isn't rocket science. But who knows ... perhaps I'm just not that bright.
The windshield wipers did start after pushing in the lever, but there was no fluid coming out.
Any ideas?

May be you didn't push hard enough? Before the pressure point it's a single wipe, after the pressure point wash/wipe.Originally Posted by Juicy

:z oom:MBWorld Fanatic!
If the above solution doesn't work could be a number of things, seeing how you just picked it up it could be something as simple as the pump not being primed, could have air in the system, no fluid, nozzles froze over, or worse case ...faulty motor.
