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.

Thanks for the tip! I never knew about those.
I just checked mine and there are only 2 udders. Could that be on a 2002?

There are 3 utters just the third one is a little harder to find. You have to stick you hand further towards the driver seat and drivers door to get to the third one. Trust me its there. You guys must have some dirty vettes for those utters to get that dirty

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?
