Many a time when the headlights are on and I only want to wash the windshield, I turn the headlights off briefly and wash the windshield so as not to waste the fluid on the headlights.Flori

Same here on my '97 2.8l A4, as well as our '98 A6 QW - headlights have 
to be on for the headlight washers to work, but they spray at the same 
time as the windshield washer jets.  No holding for 3 seconds or whatever.

And yes, kind of a nuisance when you don't want the headlight washer to 
go but you have your headlights on...just a minor one, of course.
