    I changed mine. Numerous videos online on how to do it but most of them use tools - not necessary.

    With the bonnet open, disconnect the water and power connectors. there isn't miuch play in them so be careful they don't spring up inside the bonnet.
    To remove the existing jets, simply pull them gently towards the front of the bonnet ie up the way with the bonnet lifted and slightly out ie towards the engine.
    They'll pop out without too much force.
    Simply reconnect new ones and clip them back in, in the reverse of the removal procedure.
    5 mins total and no tools needed

    Ive always wondered why Audi insist on keeping the 3 jet spray instead of the much nicer mist spray like the rest of VAG!?

    Thanks to all who posted advice on this. It must be the easiest mod ever (3 mins plus opening the bonnet!), and the spray jets are soooo much better.

    Baffling that it's not done as standard!

    Audi wouldn’t have much to boast about in new models if they all got the new improve parts
