Washer fluid

[1.8Trip]

Which VW engineer's idea was it to make a f'n 3L washer fluid tank. They should have made it 5L. A. So we don't have to keep filling it up every time the snow melts and B. so a 4L jug all fits.

Re: Washer fluid

Yah, I curse VW every time I fill up the washer tank as well. How hard would it have been to make 5L tank. I think Hella makes one in Europe that is used with their headlight washer system. The tank is 5L and extends inder the fender wall.

Re: Washer fluid

Seems to me, my cousin's VR6 corrado had a 7Ltr washer tank. My 95' GTI had a 4Ltr. Tanks on our mk4s are too small.

Re: Washer fluid

The washer light freaks me out too. The thing bings super loud every single time I start the engine.

Re: Washer fluid

I got a tip for you...

Why don't you try following that car in front of you a little closer?!

Cheers...

Re: Washer fluid

haha.. i do that only if its a car and has flaps.. i don't really like rocks and shiz being tossed at my car.. especially being lowered since they scrape the entire hood sorta thing..

Re: Washer fluid

The 4L not fitting in is a pain, I don't like having the little bit left. I dunno I try and wipe off the spray right away while its still wet and that saves me quite alot of fluid. But the rear, seriously that thing uses up so much.
