Clean your udders
there are 3 udders under the wiper motor, this is one of the reasons wiper motors fail

Windshield wipers ! These cars have windshield wipers ? What do you use those for?
Just kidding, I just cleaned out mine. I never knew that. All of mine had leaves, one was wet and slimely.

Thanks for the tip! I just found mine, and they'd probably never cleaned before. I couldn't believe the amount of cr@p I pulled out of there.
On my A4: they are about 1.5 inches in diameter, something like 3 inches long. They point straight down. They drain water out of the area that houses the wiper motor/mechanism. Open the hood. They are below and outboard, and slightly aft, of the power brake boost unit (the big black round thing betweeen the brake fluid resoirvior and the firewall.)
I found leaves, twigs, a candy wrapper (??) and I think Jimmy Hoffa's business card, among other things in there.

I just checked mine and there are only 2 udders. Could that be on a 2002?

Quite a bit of junk in there. Good reminder.

What would happen if I was to snip the ends off those so that the zilch will fall through?
