I'd be interested in what you find out.  All my Audis operate the wiper 
blades without lubricating washer water until the washer pump gets the 
lines refilled.  That's two 4Kq, two 5Kq, a 200q20v and a V8.  I've never 
understood why a premium car wouldn't squirt a little before activating the 
wipers.
