Wiper fluid situation.

[Alan-G]

Had to top up my wiper fluid spray and today found the reservour in the boot !

WTF. How is this container meant to handle freezing temps as we've had of late ?

The line of tubing to the dispensers has to be all of 3mm inner thickness and almost the length of the car.

The exhaust is no where near the reservoir - so no help there.

I found that Honda have heaters for this. Mitsubishi dont.

I really dont want to put straight anti-freeze in it !

What is the answer.

The cheapo fluid from halfrauds is fine up to -20 (off the top of my head - bloody colder than uk anywhoo) and is a 1:20 mixture.
And it smells of narnas...
