Get your friend to check what additives have been added to the washer bottle as some contaminate the level sensor, specifically Rain-X washer additive - that's different to Rain-X screen treatment.

Seems to be a common problem on Vag and BMW vehicles. Using non approved washer additives can cause the level sensor to malfunction.

It was the £250 diagnostic charge that got me. Known problem too.
