mine did this a month ago. pumped till my heart was content but no wipe, thought is was the motor. i checked all fuses, pump etc... scratched my head until i looked in bentley and found out that there is a relay that controls the rear wiper independent of the pump. i bought a new one from vw for about $8. cured it! try that. i think the relay was number 72 but can't remember exactly. it is located in fuse box right above the fuses, about the size of pager, there are several of them if you are familiar. chances are this might be your problem. after i replaced that relay another relay went out a week later, so i replaced that as well. i guess they pretty much start going about the same time or so. but now all is good good luck jason
